IN THE CASE OF:
BOARD DATE: 18 April 2012
DOCKET NUMBER: AR20110021057
THE BOARD CONSIDERED THE FOLLOWING EVIDENCE:
1. Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any).
2. Military Personnel Records and advisory opinions (if any).
THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, STATEMENT, AND EVIDENCE:
1. The applicant requests correction of item 3 (Social Security Number (SSN)) of his DD Form 214 (Armed Forces of the United States Report of Transfer or Discharge) to show "xxx-xx-xx7x" instead of "xxx-xx-xx4x."
2. The applicant states his SSN is incorrect on his DD Form 214.
3. The applicant provides:
* Social Security card
* DD Form 214
CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:
1. Title 10, U.S. Code, section 1552(b), provides that applications for correction of military records must be filed within 3 years after discovery of the alleged error or injustice. This provision of law also allows the Army Board for Correction of Military Records (ABCMR) to excuse an applicants failure to timely file within the 3-year statute of limitations if the ABCMR determines it would be in the interest of justice to do so. While it appears the applicant did not file within the time frame provided in the statute of limitations, the ABCMR has elected to conduct a substantive review of this case and, only to the extent relief, if any, is granted, has determined it is in the interest of justice to excuse the applicants failure to timely file. In all other respects, there are insufficient bases to waive the statute of limitations for timely filing.
2. His DD Form 398 (Statement of Personal History), dated 30 May 1968, shows his SSN as "xxx-xx-xx7x." He was inducted into the Army of the United States on 7 June 1968. He served in Vietnam and was released from active duty on
9 January 1970 and transferred to the USAR Control Group (Annual Training) to complete his remaining service obligation.
3. Item 3 of his DD Form 214 shows his SSN as "xxx-xx-xx4x."
4. He provides a copy of his social security card which shows his SSN as
"xxx-xx-xx7x"
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
The evidence of record shows the applicant's SSN as "xxx-xx-xx7x" at the time of induction. Therefore, it would be appropriate to correct item 3 of his DD Form 214 to reflect this SSN.
