      BOARD DATE:        22 September 2005
      DOCKET NUMBER:  AR20050010656


      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. Joyce A. Wright               |     |Analyst              |


      The following members, a quorum, were present:

|     |Mr. James E. Anderholm            |     |Chairperson          |
|     |Mr. Bernard P. Ingold             |     |Member               |
|     |Mr. Michael J. Flynn              |     |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 her enlistment contract be
corrected to show that she enlisted in the US Army Reserve (USAR) for a
period of 8 years   00 weeks instead of 6 years 00 weeks.

2.  The applicant states, in effect, that her enlistment contract
erroneously shows that she enlisted in the USAR for a period of 6 years and
00 weeks.

3.  In support of her application, the applicant submits a Memorandum for
Record (MFR), Subject: Correction of Enlistment Term, from the
Headquarters, United States Army Recruiting Command (USAREC) Liaison, Fort
Leonard Wood, Missouri, dated 12 July 2005; a copy of her DD Form 4/1,
Enlistment /Reenlistment Document, dated 13 June 2005; a copy of her
service school reservation notification, dated 13 June 2005; a Statement of
Understanding, dated 12 July 2005; and other enlistment-related documents,
in support of her request.

CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:

1.  DD Form 4/1, Section B (Agreements) shows that the applicant enlisted
with no prior service in the USAR for 6 years and 00 weeks.

2.  The applicant's copy of her service school reservation notification
shows that she enlisted in the Regular Army for 6 years and 00 weeks.

3.  The MFR from USAREC dated 12 July 2005, confirms that the DD Form 4/1
is incorrect and the term of her enlistment should be corrected to reflect
her enlistment in the USAR as 8 years and 00 weeks.

4.  The applicant signed a Statement of Understanding to acknowledge that
she understood that her request to amend her enlistment contract was for
her benefit and was not submitted under coercion.

5.  Army Regulation 601-210, paragraph 1-11b(1), provides that under the
provisions of 10 USC 651, each person who becomes a member of a U. S. Armed
Force, either by enlistment, appointment, or induction, will serve in the
U. S. Armed Forces for a total initial period of 8 years.  Any part of such
service that is not active duty will be performed in a Reserve Component.
A person’s statutory military service runs concurrent with a contractual
military service obligation.


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 for enlistment in
the USAR being shown on her DD Form 4/1.

2.  The applicant's DD Form 4/1 erroneously shows her term of enlistment as
      6 years and 00 weeks in the USAR.  The MFR from USAREC dated 12 July
2005, confirms that the DD Form 4/1 is incorrect and should be corrected to
reflect her term of enlistment in the USAR as 8 years and 00 weeks.

BOARD VOTE:

_JA_____  _BI_____  __MF___  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
amending the enlistment contract (DD Forms 4/1) of the individual concerned
to show that she enlisted in the USAR for 8 years and 00 weeks instead of
the         6 years and 00 weeks that is currently shown.
