19.  The applicant provided a copy of her social security card which shows
the third digit of her SSN as “7.”

20.  Army Regulation 635-5 (Separation Documents) establishes the
standardized policy for preparing and distributing the DD Form 214.  In
pertinent part, it states that the Reserve obligation termination date
refers to the completion date of the statutory service obligation incurred
by all personnel on initial enlistment or appointment into the Armed
Forces.  This regulation states that the military service obligation (MSO)
starts on the date of initial enlistment or appointment in the Regular
Army, Army National Guard, and the U.S. Army Reserve to include Delayed
Entry Program.  The regulation also states that Soldiers discharged,
dismissed, or dropped from the Army rolls, or with an expired MSO, enter
"00 00 00" and Soldiers within 90 days of their MSO termination date at
separation will be considered to have completed their MSO and "00 00 00"
will be entered.

21.  Army Regulation 135-91 (Service Obligations, Methods of Fulfillment,
Participation Requirements, and Enforcement Procedures), chapter 2,
paragraph 2-1 states that the statutory MSO is incurred on initial entry
into the Armed Forces whether by induction, enlistment, or appointment.  It
states that on and after 1 June 1984, all Soldiers incurred an 8-year
statutory MSO.  Prior to 1 June 1984, all personnel incurred a 6-year
statutory obligation on initial entry into the Armed Forces.

22.  Army Regulation 635-5 directs that the titles of all MOS or area of
concentration (AOC) served for at least one year and the number of years
and months served will be entered in item 11.  For time determination, 16
days or more count as a month.  Basic training and advanced individual
training (AIT) is not counted.

23.  Army Regulation 635-5 directs that total prior active service less
lost time will be entered in item 12d.  It also directs that the total
prior inactive service less lost time will be taken from previously issued
DD Forms 214 and the total amount will be entered in item 12e.

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:

1.  The applicant's enlistment contract and other documents in her service
records show the third digit of her SSN as “7.”  However, her DD Form 214
for the period ending 31 October 2005 incorrectly reflects the third digit
of her SSN as “1.”  Therefore, it would be appropriate to amend item 3 on
her DD Form 214 for the period ending 31 October 2005 to show the third
digit of her SSN as “7.”

2.  The applicant enlisted in the U.S. Army Reserve on 24 June 1994 for a
period of eight years.  She completed her Reserve service obligation on 23
June 2002.  Based on the governing regulation, she was released from active
duty on 31 October 2005 with no further military obligation.  Therefore,
item 6 on her DD Form 214 for the period ending 31 October 2005 properly
reflects the entry “00000000.”

3.  The applicant was awarded PMOS 92Y on 13 December 1994.  She was
awarded PMOS 75H20 on 28 August 2002 and this MOS was converted to 42A on
1 October 2004.

4.  Since the applicant’s DA Form 2-1 (Personnel Qualification Record) and
Enlisted Record Brief are not available, the Board is unable to determine
how long she served in MOS 42A.  Therefore, there is insufficient evidence
on which to correct item 11 on her DD Form 214 for the period ending 31
October 2005.

5.  It appears the applicant’s DD Form 214 for the period ending 31 October
2005 incorrectly reflects 2 years, 9 months, and 18 days in item 12c (Net
Active Service This Period).  Therefore, it would be appropriate to amend
item 12c to reflect 1 year, 9 months, and 18 days active duty service this
period.

6.  The applicant's DD Form 214 for the period ending 31 October 2005 does
not show any prior active or prior inactive service.  As any annual and/or
weekend training the applicant may have accomplished prior to the date she
entered active duty on 13 January 2004 cannot be determined by this Board,
her records should be reviewed to determine her prior active and prior
inactive service as of 31 October 2005 and her DD Form 214 for the period
ending 31 October 2005 should be corrected accordingly.

BOARD VOTE:

________  ________  ________  GRANT FULL RELIEF

WC______  JR______  DT______  GRANT PARTIAL RELIEF

________  ________  ________  GRANT FORMAL HEARING

________  ________  ________  DENY APPLICATION

BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION:

1.  The Board determined that the evidence presented was sufficient to
warrant a recommendation for partial relief.  As a result, the Board
recommends that the DD Form 214 for the period ending 31 October 2005 of
the individual concerned be corrected by:

      a.  amending item 3 to show the third digit of her SSN as “7”; and

      b.  amending item 12c to show she served 1 year, 9 months, and 18
days net active service this period.

2.  The U.S. Army Human Resources Command (HRC) – St. Louis should review
her total prior active service and total prior inactive service as of 31
October 2005.  Items 12d and 12e on his DD Form 214 for the period ending
31 October 2005 should then be amended to show she completed the
appropriate total prior active service and total prior inactive service as
determined by HRC-St. Louis.


3.  The Board further determined that the evidence presented is
insufficient to warrant a portion of the requested relief.  As a result,
the Board recommends denial of so much of the application that pertains to
showing her Reserve obligation termination date as 29 September 2008 and
showing she served in PMOS 42A for 11 years.
