		IN THE CASE OF: 

		BOARD DATE:	    11 February 2014

		DOCKET NUMBER:  AR20130012056 


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 social security number (SSN) shown on his DD Form 214 (Armed Forces of the United States Report of Transfer or Discharge).

2.  The applicant states his SSN is shown as XXX-XX-9334 and should be 
XXX-XX-9234.

3.  The applicant provides a copy of his 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 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.  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 applicant's failure to timely file.  In all other respects, there are insufficient bases to waive the statute of limitations for timely filing.

2.  On 2 June 1958, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Army.  On 14 March 1961, he was honorably released from active duty and transferred to the U.S. Army Reserve.  Item 3 (SSN) of his DD Form 214 shows his SSN as 
XXX-XX-9334.

3.  His military records, to include a DD Form 93 (Record of Emergency Data), show his SSN as XXX-XX-9234.

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:

The evidence indicates an administrative error was made when recording the applicant's SSN on his DD Form 214.  It would be appropriate to correct this error at this time.

BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION:
