At the time of the applicant’s induction, the Army was using military service number (MSN) and not social security account number. The applicant was assigned the MSN _____.
Effective 1 July 1969, the Department of Defense directed that the military service number would be replaced by the member’s social security account number.
The applicant was notified by the U.S. Army Administration Center, St. Louis, Missouri, that his personnel records failed to reveal his SSAN, and requested that one be provided to them. An annotation on a request for his SSAN shows that ____ had been coded into the system as his SSAN.
On 14 March 1971, the applicant was honorably discharged under the provisions of Army Regulation 635-200, for early separation of overseas returnees. His DD Form 214 Indicates he had 1 year, 7 months and 3 days of creditable service, and was separated under the name of _____, and the SSAN of ______. The applicant authenticated his DD Form 214 with his signature.
On 29 March 1972, after the sixth request, the applicant submitted his SSAN of

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. Evidence shows the applicant was inducted into the Army under the name of ______, and used this name through out his military service. There is no evidence or documentation that shows he used the name of ______.
2. Evidence shows that the applicant’s military service number was used during his active duty military service. After a sixth request, the applicant submitted a social security account number, that was coded into the system on 3 August 1972. The applicant submits no documentation to show that he had been issued a social security account number prior to his separation from active duty.
3. 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 that requirement.
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.
