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 |

THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, STATEMENT, AND EVIDENCE:
1. The applicant requests his DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or
Discharge From Active Duty) for the period 20030207-20040924 be corrected
to show his foreign service in Bosnia and Iraq in Item 12f (Foreign
Service).
2. The applicant states he served 7 months in Bosnia and 11 months in
Iraq, but Item 12f of his DD Form 214 reflects no foreign service.
3. The applicant provides:
a. A Virginia Department of Veterans Affairs Field Transmittal
Record, dated September 27, 2004.
b. A copy of his DD Form 214.
c. A copy of Orders 087-00238, US Army Transportation Center and
Fort Eustis, dated 28 March 2003, showing deployment of the 1032nd
Transportation Company to Operation Enduring Freedom for up to 365 days.
d. A copy of the 1032nd Transportation Company deployment roster.
CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:

(VAARNG). He served on active duty from 7 February 2003 to 24 September
2004 as a member of the 1032nd Transportation Company.
2. The applicant's DD Form 214, in Item 18 (Remarks), shows he served in
Kuwait and Iraq from 20030310-20040301, a total of 11 months and 20 days.

214.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
1. The applicant served in Kuwait and Iraq for 11 months and 20 days from
10 March 2003 to 1 March 2004. This service should be reflected in Item
12f of his DD Form 214.

to show he served in Bosnia.

BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION:
1. The Board determined that the evidence presented was sufficient to

(Foreign Service) his Kuwait/Iraq service of 0000 years, 11 months, and 20
days.

additional foreign service in Bosnia.

Item 12f (Foreign Service), of the applicant's DD Form 214, shows the entry "00 07 27" (7 months and 27 days). The ABCMR will decide cases on the evidence of record – evidence that is submitted by applicants in support of their issue and evidence that is contained in their service personnel records. Item 12f, of his DD Form 214, shows foreign service of 7 months and 7 days.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2013 | 20130014491
Army Regulation 600-8-22 (Military Awards) states the Iraq Campaign Medal (ICM) is awarded to members who served in direct support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Since there is no evidence of record and he provided no evidence showing he deployed to Africa, there is insufficient evidence on which to base adding this deployment to his DD Form 214. His DD Form 214 shows he served in Iraq from 1 April 2003 to 30 June 2004.

As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by amending...

In addition, the instructions for completing Item 18 state, in pertinent part, for an active duty Soldier deployed with his or her unit during their continuous period of active service enter the statement, "SERVICE IN (NAME OF COUNTRY DEPLOYED) FROM (inclusive dates for example, YYYYMMDD - YYYYMMDD)". The applicant contends, in effect, that his DD Form 214 should be corrected because it does not show his service in support of Operation Enduring Freedom or the awards he is authorized for...
