IN THE CASE OF:
BOARD DATE: 7 May 2015
DOCKET NUMBER: AR20140016427
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 that her DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty) be corrected to show in item 12b that her separation date is 20140621.
2. The applicant states that her DD Form 214 incorrectly shows that her separation date in item 12b was 20130621 instead of 20140621.
3. The applicant provides copies of her DD Form 214 and separation orders dated 15 May 2014.
CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:
1. The applicant was serving as a staff sergeant in a United States Army Reserve (USAR) troop program unit at Fort Totten, New York when she was ordered to active duty in support of Operation Enduring Freedom on 19 June 2013.
2. She deployed to Afghanistan during the period 20130807 20140505 and was returned to Fort Dix, New Jersey where she was honorably released from active duty (REFRAD) on 21 June 2014 after having served 1 year and 3 days of active service.
3. However, her DD Form 214 issued at the time of her REFRAD reflects in item 12b that she was separated on 2013 06 21.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
1. The applicant entered active duty on 20130619 and served 1 year and 3 days of active service. She was honorably REFRAD on 20140621. However, her DD Form 214 issued at the time of her REFRAD shows she was separated on 20130621 instead of 20140621.
2. Inasmuch as it appears that an administrative error occurred at the time her DD Form 214 was prepared, it would be appropriate to correct her DD Form 214 to show in item 12b that she was separated on 20140621.

The applicant provides her DD Form 214, DD Form 215 (Correction to DD Form 214), and her release from active duty (REFRAD) orders, dated 21 December 1984. There is no evidence that shows she separated on any date other than 21 December 1984. Therefore, there is insufficient evidence on which to base adding this marksmanship qualification badge to her DD Form 214.

The document was presumably issued to her at the time of her separation which shows she was honorably retired due to permanent disability. (1) Item 12a (Date Entered Active Duty This Period) contains the entry "2005 02 01." Based on this correction she is further entitled to correction of item 12c of her DD Form 214 to show net active service of 8 years, 8 months, and 20 days and to correction of item 18 to show her continuous honorable service from 1 February 2005 to 19 October 2013.

The applicant requests correction of her DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty) to show her date of birth (DOB) as 30 September instead of 30 April. Her DD Form 214 issued at the time of her REFRAD shows her DOB in item 5 as being in April instead of September. As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by amending her DD Form 214 to show her DOB as it is shown on her birth certificate.
