PROCEEDINGS


         IN THE CASE OF:
        

         BOARD DATE: 8 August 2002
         DOCKET NUMBER: AR2002076575


         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. Deyon D. Battle Analyst

The following members, a quorum, were present:

Mr. Raymond J. Wagner Chairperson
Mr. Lester Echols Member
Ms. Margaret V. Thompson 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 that he enlisted in the Army for 3 years.

3. The applicant states that his enlistment contract erroneously shows that he enlisted in the Army for 8 years. In support of his appeal, he submits a Memorandum For Record (MFR) from the United States Army Recruiting Command (USAREC) confirming that the years of service on his enlistment contract should read 3 years.

4. The applicant’s enlistment contract (DD Form 4/1) and his Statement for Enlistment (DA Form 3286-63) show that he enlisted in the Army for 3 years and 00 weeks 2 July 2002. However, his DD Form 4/3 shows his term of enlistment as 8 years and 00 weeks.

5. The MFR from USAREC dated 8 July 2002 confirms that the DD Form 4/3 is incorrect and should reflect his term of enlistment as 3 years.

CONCLUSIONS:
1. An error was made during the preparation of the applicant’s enlistment contract, which resulted in the incorrect term of service being reflected.

2. The applicant clearly enlisted in the Army for 3 years and 00 weeks on 2 July 2002 and his DD Form 4/3 should be appropriately amended.

3. 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 amending the enlistment contract (DD Form 4/3) of the individual concerned to show that he enlisted in the Regular Army for 3 years and 00 weeks instead of 8 years and 00 weeks as currently reflected.
