IN THE CASE OF:
BOARD DATE: 10 March 2015
DOCKET NUMBER: AR20140012878
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-6583 versus XXX-XX-6883.
2. The applicant states, in effect, his SSN is XXX-XX-6583 not XXX-XX-6883 as shown on his DD Form 214. A typographical error was made.
3. The applicant provides his DD Form 214 and a copy of his social security card.
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. The applicant was inducted into the Army of the United States on 11 February 1966.
3. On 7 February 1968, he was honorably released from active duty. His
DD Form 214 shows his SSN as XXX-XX-6883.
4. His records primarily show his military serial number, not his SSN. Those documents which contain his SSN, such as the DD Form 398 (Statement of Personal History), show it as XXX-XX-6583.
5. He provides a copy of his social security card, which shows his SSN as
XXX-XX-6583.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
The evidence indicates an administrative error was made when recording the applicant's SSN on his DD Form 214. Therefore, it would be appropriate to correct this error at this time.
