2. The applicant requests, in effect, correction to his military records to show his correct social security number.
3. The applicant states that at the time of his retirement his social security number was incorrectly annotated on his retirement orders. He submits copies of his social security card, retirement identification card, medicare insurance card, his wife’s military identification card, and retirement orders in support of his request.
4. The applicant’s military records were lost or destroyed in the National Personnel Records Center fire of 1973. Information herein was obtained from alternate sources and documentation submitted by the applicant.
5. The applicant was retired from the United States Army by reason of physical disability on 10 July 1969.
6. Available records show when he enlisted in the military he was assigned a service number.
7. His retirement orders, dated 24 June 1969, incorrectly show the sixth digit of his social security number as a “2”.
8. Evidence submitted by the applicant show the sixth digit of his social security number as a “3”.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The applicant is entitled to correction to his social security number on his retirement orders. The sixth digit was erroneously entered as a “2”.
2. The Board notes that the applicant’s available records show he was identified through his military service with a service number. At the time of his retirement in 1969, his service number and social security number were entered on his retirement orders. Documentation submitted with the application shows the sixth digit of the social security number should be “3”.
3. Therefore, it is concluded that the sixth digit of the social security number was erroneously entered as a “2” on the applicant’s retirement order and should be corrected to show “3”.
4. In view of the foregoing, the applicant’s records should be corrected as recommended below.
RECOMMENDATION:
That all of the Department of the Army records related to this case be corrected by showing on the retirement orders of the individual concerned the sixth digit of the social security number as a “3”.

I certify that hereinafter is recorded the record of consideration of the Army Board for Correction of Military Records in the case of the above-named individual. APPLICANT STATES : That his DD Form 214 shows his service number as his SSN. EVIDENCE OF RECORD : The applicant's military records show:
ARMY | BCMR | CY2011 | 20110010186
Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). The applicant requests that his DD Form 214 (Armed Forces of the United States Report of Transfer or Discharge) be corrected to reflect that his Social Security Number (SSN) has an 8 in the sixth digit instead of a 9. 2. The applicant states that his DD Form 214 incorrectly reflects that the sixth digit of his SSN is a 9 when in fact it is an 8. 3.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2013 | 20130016122
Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). The applicant enlisted in the Regular Army and provided the SSN that is reflected on his Social Security Card and continued to serve under that SSN. As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by deleting the SSN contained in item 3 of his DD Form 214 and entering the SSN that is reflected on his Social Security Card.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2010 | 20100012506
Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). The applicant requests correction of his DD Form 214 (Armed Forces of the United States Report of Transfer or Discharge) to show his correct social security number (SSN) contains the number "5" as the sixth digit instead of the number "6." DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: The evidence of record shows that upon induction in the AUS the applicant listed an SSN containing the number "5" as the sixth digit.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2013 | 20130021980
Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: The evidence of record confirms the applicant's SSN was listed with the sixth and seventh digits as 69 upon his induction into the AUS and his entry on active duty. Therefore, it would be appropriate to correct his DD Form 214 to show his correct SSN.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2002 | 2002066981C070402
The applicant states that his discharge is unjust and needs to be changed to honorable or upgraded to a better discharge. However, his DD Form 214 indicates that he was discharged with an undesirable discharge on 26 August 1974 under the provisions of Army Regulation 635-206, Section VI, for misconduct – conviction by a civil court or adjudged a juvenile. The Board noted the applicant's request for correction of item 9a (Type of Separation) on his DD Form 214 to show "honorable."
ARMY | BCMR | CY2002 | 2002076046C070215
I certify that hereinafter is recorded the record of consideration of the Army Board for Correction of Military Records in the case of the above-named individual. EVIDENCE OF RECORD : The applicant's military records show: In this case, the applicant has provided no evidence to suggest that the SSAN listed in his records was in error while he was performing his military service, or that maintaining this SSAN in his records would cause him any injustice.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2001 | 2001063053C070421
There is no evidence in the available records which shows the applicant was awarded the Purple Heart or was wounded as a result of hostile action in Vietnam. Evidence of record shows the applicant was awarded an infantry MOS. Based on the foregoing, the Board determined that the evidence of record does not support award of the Purple Heart in this case.
