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. Curtis Greenway               |     |Chairperson          |
|     |Mr. Richard Dunbar                |     |Member               |
|     |Ms. LaVerne Berry                 |     |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 8 years and 00 weeks to 4 years and 00
weeks.

2.  The applicant states that his DD Form 4/3 (Enlistment/Reenlistment
Document, Armed Forces of the United States), should read 4 years 00 weeks,
and not, 8 years 00 weeks.

3.  The applicant provides copies of his DD Form 4/3, with an effective
date of   17 November 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 in support of his request.

CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:

1.  The DD Form 4/3 of the applicant's enlistment contract, shows that he
enlisted in the Regular Army for 8 years and 00 weeks on 17 November 2004.

2.  On 22 November 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 4 years and 00 weeks."

3.  The applicant’s training of choice reservation notification shows the
applicant enlisted for a term of 4 years.

4.  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 8 years and 00 weeks.  The MFR from USAREC dated 24 November
2004, confirmed that his DD Form 4/3 is incorrect and should be corrected
to reflect the term of enlistment as 4 years and 00 weeks.

BOARD VOTE:

___CG__  __RD ___  __LB____  GRANT FULL RELIEF

________  ________  ________  GRANT PARTIAL 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
showing her term of service as 4 years and 00 weeks.
