                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS


      IN THE CASE OF:


      BOARD DATE:        1 May 2007
      DOCKET NUMBER:  AR20060016133


      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. Gerard W. Schwartz            |     |Acting Director      |
|     |Mrs. Nancy L. Amos                |     |Analyst              |


      The following members, a quorum, were present:

|     |Mr. Paul M. Smith                 |     |Chairperson          |
|     |Mr. David K. Haasenritter         |     |Member               |
|     |Mr. Edward E. Montgomery          |     |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 that item 12a (Date Entered AD This Period) of
his DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty) for
the period ending 31 July 2006 be corrected.

2.  The applicant states he entered the Army on 1 March 1989.  He was in
the Navy from 26 July 1983 until 25 March 1986.  He was also in the Naval
Reserve from 26 July 1986 until 28 February 1989.

3.  The applicant provides one DD Form 214 for the period ending 25 July
1986 and one DD Form 214 for the period ending 31 July 2006.

CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:

1.  After having had prior inactive service, the applicant entered active
duty with the Navy on 26 July 1983.  He was released from active duty on 25
July 1986 after completing 3 years of creditable active service and was
transferred to the Naval Reserve Personnel Center, New Orleans, LA.

2.  In a DA Form 4187 (Personnel Action), dated 10 November 1988, the
applicant requested enlistment in the Regular Army.  He indicated on the DA
Form 4187 that he understood he must continue to perform satisfactorily all
required training with his unit up to 7 days prior to his enlistment in the
Regular Army.  His commander at the Naval Air Station, Jacksonville, FL
approved his request.

3.  The applicant enlisted in the Regular Army on 1 March 1989.

4.  On 31 July 2006, the applicant was released from active duty for the
purpose of retirement.  Item 12a of his DD Form 214 for the period ending
31 July 2006 shows he entered active duty that period on 12 December 1982.


DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:

Item 12a of the applicant’s DD Form 214 for the period ending 31 July 2006
erroneously shows he entered active duty that period on 12 December 1982.
As he contended, the evidence of record shows he was in the Naval Reserve
prior to his 1 March 1989 enlistment in the Regular Army.

BOARD VOTE:

__pms___  __dkh___  __eem___  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 the DD
Form 214 for the period ending 31 July 2006 of the individual concerned be
corrected by amending item 12a to show he entered active duty on 1 March
1989.

    Records available to the Board indicate the applicant served on active duty between 17 August 1966 and 14 February 1972. There is no evidence the applicant was ever awarded a Meritorious Service Medal or the Republic of Vietnam Civil Actions Honor Medal as an individual decoration and as such there is no basis to correct his record to show those two awards. There is no evidence that he was ever awarded the Good Conduct Medal for his initial period of qualifying service (17 August 1966-16...

The applicant's claim that Item 12a of his 31 January 1994 DD Form 214 should contain the date 27 September 1973 was also carefully considered; however, by regulation, the beginning date of the continuous period of active duty for which a DD Form 214 was not previously issued will be entered in...

    On 3 September 1970, the applicant immediately reenlisted in the Regular Army and continued to serve until his discharge on 13 June 1973, when he was issued a DD Form 214 that reflects this period of active duty.

Records show the applicant should have discovered the alleged error or injustice now under consideration on 31 December 1986; therefore, the time for the...

    Item 13 of the applicant's DD Form 214 does not show award of the Purple Heart and the applicant's records do not contain an order awarding the applicant the Purple Heart. This period of active military service is correctly shown in Item 12d of the DD Form 214, dated 28 August 2006. Evidence of record further shows that the applicant enlisted in the Regular Army (entered active duty) on 5 April 1989 and was discharged (temporary disability retirement) on 28 August 2006.
