IN THE CASE OF:
BOARD DATE: 10 January 2013
DOCKET NUMBER: AR20120012310
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 his DD Form 214 (Armed Forces of the United States Report of Transfer or Discharge) to show his social security number (SSN) as "XXX-XX-XXX0."
2. The applicant states:
* the SSN shown on his DD Form 214 is incorrect
* his SSN is "XXX-XX-XXX0"
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. Having prior service in the U.S. Navy Reserve, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Army on 29 December 1958 for a period of 3 years. He served as a helicopter mechanic and he was honorably released from active duty on 1 March 1962 and transferred to the U.S. Army Reserve Control Group (Reinforcement) to complete his remaining service obligation.
3. His DD Form 214 shows his SSN as "XXX-XX-XXX8."
4. His DD Form 93 (Record of Emergency Data), dated 17 May 1961, shows his SSN as "XXX-XX-XXX0."
5. He provides a copy of his social security card that shows the same SSN as shown on his DD Form 93.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
The applicant's DD Form 93, dated 17 May 1961, shows he recorded his SSN as "XXX-XX-XXX0" as shown on his social security card. Therefore, it would be appropriate at this time to correct his DD Form 214 accordingly.
BOARD VOTE:
____x___ ____x___ ____x___ GRANT FULL RELIEF
________ ________ ________ GRANT PARTIAL RELIEF

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 all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by
deleting the SSN currently shown on his DD Form 214 and replacing it with the SSN as shown on his social security card.

ARMY | BCMR | CY2014 | 20140017695
Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). The applicant requests correction of his DD Form 214 (Armed Forces of the United States Report of Transfer or Discharge) to show his social security number (SSN) as "XXX-XX-XXX0" instead of "XXX-XX-XXX8." Item 3 (SSN) of his DD Form 214 shows his SSN as "XXX-XX-XXX8."
ARMY | BCMR | CY2012 | 20120001625
A review of other documents contained in his military personnel record shows his SSN consistently appears as "XXX-XX-XXX8" throughout his service. Therefore, he is entitled to correction of this DD Form 214 to show his SSN as "XXX-XX-XXX8." ____________x_____________ CHAIRPERSON I certify that herein is recorded the true and complete record of the proceedings of the Army Board for Correction of Military Records in this case.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2010 | 20100007077
Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). However, since the SSN which was verified by the Social Security Administration was used in one of the two forms in the applicant's military records which use an SSN, the preponderance of evidence would support the applicant's contention that the SSN on his DD Form 214 is wrong. As a result, the Board recommends that item 32 of the DD Form 214 of the individual concerned be corrected to show...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2013 | 20130008910
The applicant requests correction of the social security number (SSN) shown on his DD Form 214 (Report of Separation from Active Duty). DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: The evidence shows the SSN shown on the applicant's social security card was properly entered in his record during his military service. As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by replacing the SSN entered on his DD Form 214 with the SSN shown on his...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2011 | 20110008010
The applicant provides his DD Form 214. This provision of law also allows the Army Board for Correction of Military Records (ABCMR) to excuse an applicant's 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. * DD Form 47 (Record of Induction) * DA Form 20 (Enlisted Qualification Record) * DD Form 1584 (National Agency Check Request) * DA Form 428 (Application for Identification Card) * reassignment,...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2013 | 20130005646
Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). The applicant's military record contains a DD Form 398 (Statement of Personal History) which was completed during his enlistment processing. The majority of the documents contained in the applicants Army Military Human Resource Record (AMHRR) (previously known as the official military personnel file) lists SSN "XXX-XX-XXX0" which he now claims is incorrect.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2012 | 20120019024
The applicant states the SSN recorded on his DD Form 214 should be "xxx-xx-xxx4" instead of "xxx-xx-xxx0." The evidence of record shows that the U.S. Army was not using the SSN at the time the applicant initially entered active duty. Therefore, it would be appropriate to correct the applicant's 4 April 1969 DD Form 214 to show his SSN as "xxx-xx-xxx4."
ARMY | BCMR | CY2011 | 20110017232
The applicant requests correction of certain documents within his record to show his SSN as "XX9-XX-XXX0." Therefore, it would be appropriate to grant relief by correcting his DD Form 214, DD Form 256A, and Letter Orders Number 08-1044574 to show his correct SSN. As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by: * amending item 3 of his DD Form 214, for the period ending 20 December 1969, by deleting the current SSN and...
ARMY | BCMR | CY2011 | 20110011757
Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). This document shows his SSN as "XXX-XX-XXX8." As such, it appears the SSN on the DD Form 214, DD Form 256A, and DD Form 2542 issued to the applicant at the time of his separation were all the result of a typographical error that was made on his discharge orders.
ARMY | BCMR | CY2011 | 20110005686
Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). The evidence of record shows the applicant's SSN as "XXX-XX-XXX0" at the time of his induction. As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by: a. awarding him the first award of the Army Good Conduct Medal for the period 14 February 1968 through 17 September 1969; b. deleting the entry "XXX-XX-XXX9" from item 3 of his DD Form...
