                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS


           IN THE CASE OF:


      BOARD DATE:        26 JULY 2005
      DOCKET NUMBER:  AR20040008964


      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. Gale J. Thomas                |     |Analyst              |


      The following members, a quorum, were present:

|     |Ms. Linda Simmons                 |     |Chairperson          |
|     |Mr. Patrick McGann                |     |Member               |
|     |Mr. Leonard Hassell               |     |Member               |

      The Board considered the following evidence:

      Exhibit A - Application for correction of military records.

      Exhibit B - Military Personnel Records (including advisory opinion,
if any).

THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, STATEMENT, AND EVIDENCE:

1.  The applicant requests that his enlistment contract be corrected by
changing his term of service from 6 years and 24 weeks to 5 years and 24
weeks.

2.  The applicant states that his DD Form 4/3 (Enlistment/Reenlistment
Document, Armed Forces of the United States), has the wrong term of
enlistment and should read 5 years 24 weeks, and not, 6 years 24 weeks.

3.  The applicant provides copies of his DD Form 4/3, with an effective
date of
7 October 2004, a copy of his training of choice reservation notification,
a Memorandum For Record (MFR) from the U.S. Army Recruiting Command, and a
Statement of Understanding.

CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:

1.  The DD Form 4/3, of the applicant's enlistment contract, shows that he
enlisted in the Regular Army for 6 years and 24 weeks on 7 October 2004.

2.  On 14 October 2004, a MFR from the U.S. Army Recruiting Command
(USAREC), 43rd Adjutant General Battalion, Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri,
confirmed that his DD Form 4/3 is incorrect and the term of his enlistment
should be corrected to read, "for a period of 5 years and 24 weeks."

3.  In a Statement of Understanding, the applicant states that he
understood the options under his enlistment contract, and that he submitted
the requested change under no coercion and for his own benefit.

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:

1.  An error was made during the preparation of the applicant’s enlistment
contract, which resulted in an incorrect term of service being shown on his
DD Form 4/3.

2.  The applicant's enlistment contract erroneously shows his term of
enlistment as 6 years and 24 weeks.  The MFR from USAREC dated 14 October
2004, confirmed that his DD Form 4/3 is incorrect and should be corrected
to reflect the term of enlistment as 5 years and 24 weeks.




BOARD VOTE:

__LS____  __PM___  ___LH  __  GRANT FULL RELIEF

________  ________  ________  GRANT PARTIAL RELIEF

BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION:


The Board determined that the evidence presented was sufficient to warrant
a
recommendation for relief.  As a result, the Board recommends that all
Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by
changing his DD Form 4/3 to show his term of enlistment as 5 years and
24 weeks.
