2. The applicant requests reconsideration of his previous application to correct his military records by showing the last two digits of his Social Security Number (SSN) as 65 not 66 and by showing that he completed a General Educational Development (GED) certificate.
3. The applicant states, in effect, that he needs to have these two items corrected as they are causing him employment and other administrative problems. He asks that his Report of Separation or Discharge (DD Form 214) be corrected to show these changes.
4. Incorporated herein by reference are military records which were summarized in the decisional document prepared to reflect the Board's previous consideration of the case (AC97-08104) on 15 October 1997.
5. The applicant submits a copy of a Report of Educational Achievement Through The United States Armed Forces Institute (USAFI) Transcript and a Social Security Administration (SSA) printout.
6. The applicant’s submissions are new evidence that requires Board consideration.
7. The information on the SSA printout matches the information on the applicant’s enlistment documents as to his full name, date and place of birth, father’s name and mother’s maiden name. There is no SSN on any of the entry documents and all other official documents in his records show his SSN as ending in 66.
8. The applicant submits a copy of a USAFI transcript that shows his satisfactory completion of the GED over the period of June 1972 to May 1974.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The applicant’s records show that he served under the SSN ending in 66 during his entire period of service. However, the Board concludes that the SSA document shows that this is an incorrect SSN for the applicant. Therefore, it is appropriate to correct the applicant’s records to reflect the correct final digits as 65.
2. The applicant’s records show that he completed only 11 years of formal education prior to or during his period of military service, therefore the entry at item 20 on his DD Form 214 is correct.
3. However, the Board concurs with the applicant that his records should show that he obtained his GED. The appropriate location for this notation would be under item 27, Remarks, on his DD Form 214.
4. In view of the foregoing findings and conclusions, correcting the applicant’s records as recommended below would correct an error and rectify an injustice.
RECOMMENDATION:
That the individual concerned be issue a DD Form 215 to show, in block 27 (Remarks) of his DD Form 214, “Individuals correct SSN is ***-**-**65” and GED, 1974”.

The evidence of record shows upon his initial enlistment on 31 July 1963 he completed a DD Form 398 wherein he listed his SSN with the numbers "69" as the last two digits. The evidence of record shows he was awarded the Vietnam Service Medal. As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by: * deleting from item 3 of his DD Form 214 for the period ending 28 July 1967 the SSN ending with "96" and replacing it with the SSN...

The applicant states the third digit of the SSN recorded in item 32 (Remarks) of his DD Form 214 is incorrect and should be a "3" not an "8." The evidence of record shows an incorrect SSN was recorded in the applicant's military records. As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by: * deleting the SSAN from item 32 of his DD Form 214 * adding "SSAN XX3-XX-XXXX" as it is listed on his social security card _______ _...

The applicant requests correction of item 3 (Social Security Number (SSN)) of his DD Form 214 (Report of Separation from Active Duty) to show the first digit as "1" instead of "4." The applicant's request to have his SSN in his Army records changed was carefully considered; however, it is not supported by the evidence provided.

The applicant requests that his military records be corrected to show the last two digits of his Social Security Number (SSN) as 78 instead of 54. The available evidence indicates that there was an error made at the time of the applicant's initial enlistment in the Army which resulted in the incorrect SSN being reflected in his records. As a result, the Board recommends that the order dated 23 March 1983 discharging him for the USAR (Ready) and the DD Form 214 pertaining to the individual...

This provision of law also allows the Army Board for Correction of Military Records (ABCMR) to excuse an applicant's failure to timely file within the 3-year statute of limitations if the ABCMR determines it would be in the interest of justice to do so. On 7 January 1967, in conjunction with his enlistment in the Regular Army, the applicant completed a DD Form 398 (Statement of Personal History) wherein he listed his SSN with the second and third digits as "72."

ARMY | BCMR | CY2011 | 20110014114
The evidence of record shows that either a TIN or an invalid SSN was used throughout the applicant's military service. As a result, upon his REFRAD, his TIN was recorded in item 3 of his DD Form 214 as "9XX-00-XX09"; however, his SSN was not recorded on the DD Form 214. However, based on the evidence of record, it would be appropriate to correct only the applicant's DD Form 214 to show his correct SSN.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2011 | 20110007926
Item 3 (SSN) of the DD Form 214 he was issued at the time shows his SSN using the number "5" as the first digit. The evidence of record confirms the applicant listed his correct SSN on the DD Form 398 he prepared during his induction processing and that all other official documents in his record with an SSN bear the same number that he claims is correct. _______ _X _______ ___ CHAIRPERSON I certify that herein is recorded the true and complete record of the proceedings of the Army Board...

He is advised that a copy of this decisional document along with his application and the supporting evidence...
