The following members, a quorum, were present:
| |Mr. Stanley Kelley | |Chairperson |

| |Mr. Robert L. Duecaster | |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 his enlistment contract be
corrected to show that he enlisted in the Regular Army (RA) for a period of
5 years and
00 weeks instead of 4 years and 00 weeks.
2. The applicant states, in effect, that his enlistment contract
erroneously shows that he enlisted in the RA for a period of 4 years and 00
weeks.
3. In support of his application, the applicant submits a Memorandum for
Record (MFR), Subject: Correction of Enlistment Term, from Headquarters,
United States Army Recruiting Command (USAREC) Liaison, Fort Leonard Wood,
Missouri, dated 3 October 2005; copies of his DD Form 4/1 and 4/3
Enlistment /Reenlistment Document, dated 8 September 2005 and 29 September
2005, respectively; his service school reservation notification, dated 19
September 2005; his RA Applicant Data Report, dated 19 September 2005 and a
Statement of Understanding, dated 3 October 2005.
CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:
1. DD Form 4/3, Section F (Discharge from Delayed Entry/Enlistment
Program) shows that the applicant enlisted with no prior service in the RA
for 4 years and 00 weeks. His copy of his service school reservation
notification shows that he enlisted in the RA for 5 years and 00 weeks.
2. The MFR from USAREC dated 3 October 2005, confirms that the DD Form 4/3
is incorrect and the term of his enlistment should be corrected to reflect
his enlistment as 5 years and 00 weeks.
3. The applicant signed a Statement of Understanding to acknowledge that
he understood that his request to amend his enlistment contract was for his
benefit and was not submitted under coercion.
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 RA being shown on his DD Form 4/3.
2. The applicant’s DD Form 4/3 erroneously shows his term of enlistment of
4 years and 00 weeks in the RA. The MFR from USAREC, dated 3 October 2005
confirms that the DD Form 4/3 is incorrect and should be corrected to
reflect his term of enlistment service in the RA as 5 years and 00 weeks.

the
4 years and 00 weeks that is currently shown.
