PROCEEDINGS


         IN THE CASE OF:
        

         BOARD DATE: 19 August 2003
         DOCKET NUMBER: AR2003089663


         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. Fred N. Eichorn Chairperson
Ms. Margaret V. Thompson Member
Mr. John T. Meixell 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 in the pay grade of E-2.

3. The applicant states, in effect, that his enlistment contract erroneously shows that he enlisted in the Army in the pay grade of E-4. In support of his appeal, he submits a Memorandum For Record (MFR) from the United States Army Recruiting Command (USAREC) confirming that his enlistment contract should show that he enlisted in the Army in the pay grade of E-2.

4. The applicant’s DD Form 4/3 shows that he enlisted in the Army in the pay grade of E-4 on 3 April 2003. However, the MFR from USAREC dated 9 April 2003 confirms that the DD Form 4/3 is incorrect and should be corrected to reflect his pay grade as E-2.

CONCLUSIONS:

1. An error was made during the preparation of the applicant’s enlistment contract, which resulted in the incorrect pay grade being reflected.

2. He clearly enlisted in the Army in the pay grade of E-2 on 3 April 2003 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 in the pay grade of E-2 instead of pay grade E-4 as currently reflected and de facto status.
