(OMPF).

CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:

sergeant.
2. The applicant was awarded a Bachelor of Arts Degree in
Telecommunications on 19 December 1998.
3. The applicant was issued an official transcript from Baylor University
in Waco, Texas on 17 March 1999. This transcript was filed in the
applicant's performance section of his OMPF.
4. The applicant was issued a second official transcript from Baylor
University on 20 August 1999 which shows his Bachelor of Arts Degree. This
transcript was also filed in the applicant's performance section of his
OMPF.
5. Army Regulation 600-8-104 (Military Personnel Information Management/
Records) sets forth the policies, operating tasks and steps for governing
the OMPF; the Military Personnel Records Jacket; the Career Management
Individual File; Army Personnel Qualification Records; and Military
Personnel Information Management as a work category. Paragraph 2-4 of this
regulation states that once a document is placed in the OMPF it becomes a
permanent part of that file and will not be removed from that file or moved
to another part of the file unless directed by the ABCMR, the Department of
the Army Suitability Evaluation Board, Army Appeals Board, Chief of Appeals
and Corrections Branch of the Human Resources Command, the OMPF custodian
when documents have been improperly filed, Human Resources Command as an

1. The applicant was awarded a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Baylor
University in December 1998. He was issued an official transcript on 17
March 1999 and it was filed in his OPMF.
2. The applicant was issued a second official transcript awarding him a
Bachelor of Arts Degree from Baylor University on 20 August 1999 and it was
also filed in his OMPF.
3. Although the applicant's transcripts from Baylor University were issued
on different dates, they reflect the same degree. Therefore, it would be
appropriate to remove the second transcript from Baylor University issued
on 20 August 1999 from the applicant's OMPF.
