      BOARD DATE:            20 APRIL 2004
      DOCKET NUMBER:   AR2004100057


      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:

|     |Mr. Thomas D. Howard              |     |Chairperson          |
|     |Ms. Jennifer L. Prater            |     |Member               |
|     |Mr. Lawrence Foster               |     |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).

THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, STATEMENT, AND EVIDENCE:

1.  The applicant requests, in effect, that his enlistment contract be
corrected to show that the term of service he enlisted for be changed from
3 years and 00 weeks to 5 years and 00 weeks

2.  The applicant states, in effect, that Item 20a, Section F, on the DD
Form 4/3, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document, Armed Forces of the United
States, should read 5 years 00 weeks, and not, 3 years 00 weeks.

3.  The applicant provides a copy of his DD Form 4/1, and DD Form 4/3,
Enlistment/Reenlistment Document, Armed Forces of the United States, with
an effective date of 20 August 2003; and a copy of her training of choice
reservation
notification, dated 20 August 2003.

CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:

1.  The DD Form 4/3, Section F, Item 20a, of the applicant's enlistment
contract, shows that he enlisted in the Regular Army for 3 years and 00
weeks on
20 November 2003.

2.  The applicant's copy of his training of choice reservation notification
shows, "Term 60" in the Enlistment Category and Reservation Information
Section.

3.  On 24 November 2003, a Memorandum For Record (MFR) from the U.S. Army
Recruiting Command (USAREC), 43d Adjutant General Battalion, Fort Leonard
Wood, Missouri, confirms that the DD Form 4/3 is incorrect and the term of
his enlistment should be corrected to read, "for a period of 5 years and 00
weeks," instead of "for a period of 3 years and 00 weeks," as is now shown.

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 DD Form 4/3 erroneously shows his term of enlistment as
3 years and 00 weeks.  The MFR from USAREC dated 24 November 2003, confirms
that the DD Form 4/3 is incorrect and should be corrected to reflect his
term of enlistment as 5 years and 00 weeks.


BOARD VOTE:

__TDH __  __JLP __  __LF  ___  GRANT RELIEF

________  ________  ________  GRANT FORMAL HEARING

________  ________  ________  DENY APPLICATION

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 her DD Form 4/3, to show his term of enlistment as 5 years and
00 weeks.
