RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
IN THE CASE OF:
BOARD DATE: 15 SEPTEMBER 2005
DOCKET NUMBER: AR20050000168
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. Deborah L. Brantley | |Senior Analyst |
The following members, a quorum, were present:
| |Mr. John Slone | |Chairperson |
| |Mr. Eric Andersen | |Member |
| |Ms. Carol Kornhoff | |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, in effect, that item 12d (Total Prior Active
Service) be corrected to show 4 months and 18 days, vice 2 months and 8
days.
2. The applicant states, in effect, he was part of a split training option
and had
4 months and 18 days of prior active service when he was demobilized in
2004. He states an error was made on his separation document when his unit
was demobilized.
3. The applicant provides copies of his October 2002 and February 2004
separation document. He also submits a copy of a statement from the United
States Army Recruiting Command Liaison office at Fort Leonard Wood,
Missouri supporting his request.
CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:
1. There were no records available to the Board. However, information
contained in documents provided by the applicant was sufficient for the
Board to act on his application.
2. The applicant's October 2002 separation document indicates that he was
on active duty for 2 months and 8 days between 25 July and 2 October 2002
while he underwent training as a military policeman as a member of the
United States Army Reserve. That same separation document indicates that
he had 2 months and 10 days of prior active service.
3. On 24 February 2003 the applicant, still a member of the United States
Army Reserve was ordered to active duty in support of Operations Enduring
Freedom and Iraqi Freedom. He was released from active duty on 3 February
2004. Item 12d on his 2004 separation document incorrectly noted only 2
months and 8 days of prior active service from his 2002 separation document
but omitted the
2 months and 10 days of active service noted in item 12d of that separation
document.
4. A 3 December 2004 memorandum from the United States Army Recruiting
Command confirmed that the applicant's prior active service on his 2004
separation document should have been 4 months and 18 days and not the
2 months and 8 days which was recorded in item 12d of the 2004 separation
document.
5. Army Regulation 635-5, which establishes the policies and procedures
for the preparation and distribution of separation document notes that item
12d will reflect the total amount of prior active service from previously
issued separation documents.
6. Army Regulation 635-5 also states that separation documents will not be
completed for United States Army Reserve members on initial active duty for
training for less than 90 days unless the training resulted in an award of
a military specialty. This includes individual participating in the United
States Army Reserve Split Training Program.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
1. The evidence available to the Board confirms that the applicant had 2
months and 10 days of prior active service at the time he completed his 2
months of 8 days of active service in February 2004. As such, at the time
his 2004 separation document was completed the applicant's 4 months and 18
days of total prior active service should have been captured in item 12d
and not just the 2 months and 8 days captured from his 2002 separation
document.
2. The information contained on the memorandum from the United States Army
Recruiting Command Liaison Office supports the foregoing conclusion.
BOARD VOTE:
___JS __ ___EA __ __CK ___ 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 in item 12d on his 2004 separation document that he had 4 months
and 18 days of prior active service vice 2 months and 8 days.

ARMY | BCMR | CY2005 | 20050017141C070206
Peguine M. Taylor | |Member | The Board considered the following evidence: Exhibit A - Application for correction of military records. The applicant requests, in effect, correction of item 12a (Date entered AD This Period), of his DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty), dated 31 July 1987, to show the entry "1986 01 17" (17 January 1986). The applicant states, in effect, that his records reflect that he entered active duty (AD) on 23 June 1987; however, he...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2004 | 20040009186C070208
Army Regulation 635-5, which establishes the policies and procedures for the preparation and distribution of separation documents, provides, in pertinent part, that a separation report (DD Form 214) will be prepared at the conclusion of a period of active (emphasis added) Federal service. Prior to 1978 Army Regulation 635-5 required the preparation of a DD Form 214 each time an enlisted Soldier was discharged from active service for the purpose of immediate reenlistment. _____ Ted...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2009 | 20090013534
Item 12 shows the record of service. The applicant contends that his DD Form 214 should be corrected to show his correct rank/grade, prior active service, and enlisted MOS. The evidence of record shows that the applicant was promoted to 1LT/O-2 on 1 December 2003 and held this rank/grade at the time of his discharge on 1 February 2004.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2011 | 20110010172
The applicant requests, in effect, correction of his DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty), dated 30 November 2009, to show in: * item 12a (Date Entered Active Duty this Period), the date he reentered the Active Guard Reserve (AGR) program under Title 32, U.S. Code (USC) * item 12f (Foreign Service) he completed 4 months and 25 days of foreign service 2. Therefore, item 12 of his DD Form 214 for the period ending 30 November 2009 should be corrected to show he...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2010 | 20100007821
However, the governing regulation for the preparation of the DD Form 214 states training courses for combat skills are not to be listed. Therefore, the basic training course should not be listed on the applicants DD Form 214. As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by: a. deleting from item 12d of his DD Form 214 for the period ending 30 September 1992 the entry "02 months and 10 days"; b. adding to item 12d of his...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2008 | 20080001834
The applicant states, in effect, that his DD Form 214, dated 18 February 2004, does not show his total prior active service and the Joint Service Achievement Medal. By adding the applicant's net active service of 1 year, 7 months, and 4 days and his total prior active service of 6 years, 10 months, and 26 days, which equates to 8 years and 6 months, from his DD Form 214, dated 1 October 2002, this total now becomes the applicant's total prior active service for entry in item 12d, of his DD...
ARMY | BCMR | CY1995 | 9511855C070209
The applicant requests, in effect, correction of his military records to show on his DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release from Active Duty) that he was on active duty from 18 March through 10 November 1993, and that his primary specialty was 91J10 (Physical Therapy Specialist). A DA Form 2-1 (Personnel Qualification Record-Part II) indicates that the applicant attended and completed basic training during the period 9 January through 13 March 1992; that he attended and completed AIT during...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2009 | 20090000061
The applicant's records show he enlisted in the Regular Army for a period of 3 years on 14 January 1976. A copy of his DD Form 214 for this period of service is not available for review with this case; however, he was issued a certification of military service as a verification of his military service at a later date. The evidence of record shows the applicant initially enlisted in the Regular Army on 14 January 1976 and was discharged on 30 October 1978 for the purpose of immediate reenlistment.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2007 | 20070005554
The applicant requests correction of Item 12d (Total Prior Active Service) and 12e (Total Prior Inactive Service) on his DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty), dated 17 March 2007, to reflect his prior active and inactive service. It also states, in pertinent part, that the DD Form 214 will be prepared for all personnel at the time of their retirement, discharge, or release from active duty. Although the applicant has completed 15 years and 22 days of prior...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2008 | 20080004354
The evidence of record shows that the applicant was discharged from the ILARNG on 16 April 2003 and subsequently enlisted in the Regular Army on 17 April 2003: a. in order to credit the applicant with her IADT from 4 June 2002 to 16 August 2002, recorded on the DD Form 220, her date entered on active duty this period was adjusted to account for those days and is therefore correctly shown as 2003 02 04 and requires no further action; b. she was released from active duty on 16 April 2007. ...
