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


THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, STATEMENT, AND EVIDENCE:

2. The applicant states, in effect, that his enlistment contract erroneously shows that he enlisted in the Army for 8 years and 00 weeks.

3. The applicant provides, in support of his application, a Memorandum For Record (MFR), Subject: Correction of Enlistment Term, from the Headquarters, United States Army Recruiting Command (USAREC) Liaison, dated 12 February 2004; a copy of his DD Form 4/3, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document, dated 10 February 2004; a copy of his service school reservation notification, dated 24 September 2003; and a record of military processing, dated 10 February 2004.


CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:

1. The applicant's DD Form 4/3, Section F (Discharge from Delayed Entry/Enlistment Programs) shows in Item 20a that he enlisted in the US Army for 8 years and 00 weeks on 10 February 2004.

2. The applicant's service school reservation notification shows that he enlisted for 3 years and 00 weeks.

3. The MFR from USAREC dated 12 February 2004, confirms that the DD Form 4/3 is incorrect and the term of his enlistment should be corrected to reflect his term of enlistment as 3 years and 00 weeks.


DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
