systems operator, and was discharged with a general discharge on 17 June
2004.

part, that the country and dates of deployment for an active duty Soldier

12f on his DD Form 214 should be corrected to show he served 6 months and 1
day of foreign service. In addition, item 18 on his DD Form 214 should be
corrected to show his dates of service in Kuwait.

He stated that while he remembered the date he was ordered to active duty in July 2002 and the date he returned to the United States, he did not remember the exact dates of his arrival and departure from Afghanistan.
