7. Army Regulation 635-5 (Separation Documents) prescribes the separation documents prepared for Soldiers upon retirement, discharge, or release from active military service or control of the Army. It establishes standardized policy for the preparation of the DD Form 214.

It provides a brief, clear-cut record of active Army service at the time of release from active duty, retirement, or discharge. The regulation states, in pertinent part, that for item 12 (Record of Service) use extreme care in completing this block since post-service benefits, final pay, retirement credit, and so forth are based on this information. It further states that for:
a. item 12a, enter the beginning date of the continuous period of active duty for issuance of this DD Form 214, for which a DD Form 214 was not previously issued;
b. item 12b, enter the Soldiers transition date; and
c. item 12c, enter the amount of service this period by subtracting item 12a from 12b.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
The applicant's retirement points detail statement and DFAS information which show he was ordered to active duty for training from 6 July 2009 through
9 December 2009, for a period of 6 months and 4 days, is accepted as sufficient evidence in which to correct items 12a and 12c of his DD Form 214 for the period ending 9 December 2009.
