APPLICANT REQUESTS: Correction to his separation document (DD Form 214) to show his name change.
APPLICANT STATES: That his name has been legally changed. He submits a copy of his court order and DD Form 214 in support of his application.
EVIDENCE OF RECORD: The applicant's military records show:
He enlisted in the Regular Army on 8 April 1969.
He was discharged under honorable conditions on 9 September 1971.
On 31 May 1990, the Circuit Court for Hawkins County at Rogersville, Tennessee legally changed his name, after his separation from the service.
DISCUSSION: Considering all the evidence, allegations, and information presented by the applicant, together with the evidence of record, applicable law and regulations, it is concluded:
1. The applicant’s DD Form 214 is correct and need not be changed. In his case, the records reflect the correct name under which military service was performed and the applicant changed his name after his service.
2. For historical purposes, the Army has an interest in maintaining the accuracy of its records. The data contained in those records should reflect the conditions and circumstances that existed at the time the records were created.
3. In the absence of showing material error or injustice, those records should not be changed.
4. While the board understands the applicant’s desire to have the records changed, it finds no basis for compromising the integrity of the Army’s records. However, this document will be filed with your case in your official military records.
5. In order to justify correction of a military record the applicant must show to the satisfaction of the Board, or it must otherwise satisfactorily appear, that the record is in error or unjust. The applicant has failed to submit evidence that would satisfy this requirement.
6. In view of the foregoing, there is no basis for granting the applicant's request.
DETERMINATION: The applicant has failed to submit sufficient relevant evidence to demonstrate the existence of probable error or injustice.
