PROCEEDINGS


         IN THE CASE OF:
        

         BOARD DATE: 27 August 2002
         DOCKET NUMBER: AR2002071644


         I certify that hereinafter is recorded the true and complete record of the proceedings of the Army Board for Correction of Military Records in the case of the above-named individual.

Mr. Carl W. S. Chun Director
Ms. Nancy L. Amos Analyst


The following members, a quorum, were present:

Mr. Irene N. Wheelwright Chairperson
Mr. Arthur A. Omartian Member
Mr. Thomas Lanyi Member

         The applicant and counsel if any, did not appear before the Board.

         The Board considered the following evidence:

         Exhibit A - Application for correction of military
records
         Exhibit B - Military Personnel Records (including
advisory opinion, if any)

FINDINGS :

1. The applicant has exhausted or the Board has waived the requirement for exhaustion of all administrative remedies afforded by existing law or regulations.


2. The applicant requests that his enlistment contract be corrected to show he enlisted for 8 years and 00 weeks.

3. The applicant states, in effect, that his enlistment contract erroneously shows he enlisted for 6 years and 00 weeks.

4. The applicant enlisted in the U. S. Army Reserve on 21 April 2001. He had no prior service. His Enlistment/Reenlistment Contract, DD Form 4/1, item 8 erroneously shows he enlisted for 6 years and 00 weeks.

5. Effective 1 June 1984, all personnel incur an 8-year statutory obligation on initial entry into the Armed Forces.

CONCLUSIONS:

1. There is an administrative error on the applicant’s DD Form 4/1. The evidence of record shows he enlisted in the U. S. Army Reserve on 21 April 2001 for 6 years and 00 weeks. As this was his initial entry into one of the Armed Forces, he should have been enlisted for 8 years and 00 weeks.

2. In view of the foregoing, the applicant’s records should be corrected as recommended below.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the applicant’s DD Form 4/1 dated 21 April 2001, item 8 be corrected to show he enlisted for 8 years and 00 weeks.
