APPLICANT REQUESTS: In effect, that both his dates of active duty and the characterization of service on his DD Form 214, (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty) be corrected.
APPLICANT STATES: He believes his active duty dates are in error.
EVIDENCE OF RECORD: The applicant's military records show:
That, on 27 August 1982, he voluntarily enlisted in the United States Army Reserve (USAR) for a period of 6 years and training in military occupational specialty (MOS) 63B (Light Wheel Vehicle Mechanic). On the same date, he was ordered to active duty for training with a reporting date of 4 October 1982.
On 4 October 1982, the applicant reported to Fort Knox, Kentucky, for basic training. He completed the basic training requirements and, on 10 December 1982, he was assigned to Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri, for advanced individual training (AIT). He failed to complete AIT and he was never awarded an MOS.
On 4 May 1983, the applicant was separated from active duty under the provisions or Army Regulation 635-200, for unsatisfactory performance with a general discharge under honorable conditions and assigned to the USAR Control Group, St. Louis, Missouri.
Item 12a, Date Entered Active Duty This Period, on the applicant's DD Form 214 is correctly annotated to show 4 October 1982. Item 12b, Separation Date This Period, is also correctly annotated to show 4 May 1983.
On 5 August 1998, the Army Discharge Review Board denied the applicant’s request for an upgrade of his discharge. On 1 September 1999, this Board denied the applicant's request for an upgrade of his discharge.
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. 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.
2. Both the applicant's entry date and his separation date are correctly shown on his DD Form 214.
3. In September 1999, this Board reviewed the applicant's request for an upgrade of his discharge and the request was denied. He has provided no new evidence to support his request for an upgrade of his discharge or a request for reconsideration.
4. 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.
