		BOARD DATE:	  28 April 2015

		DOCKET NUMBER:  AR20150004476 


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 removal of the following courses from his Official Military personnel File (OMPF):

* Cyber Network Defense Course
* Combat Casualty Management Course
* Armorer Course
* Master Driver Course
* Sexually Transmitted Disease Intervention Course
* Army Suicide Intervention Course
* Mail Handler Course

2.  The applicant states the above courses are fraudulent and should be removed from his OMPF. 

3.  The applicant provides copies of the completion certificates for the above-mentioned courses.

CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:

1.  On 24 June 2014, while the applicant was serving on active duty in the rank of sergeant (SGT) nonjudicial punishment was imposed against him for providing three training certificates for enclosing in his records that he knew to be false.  His punishment consisted of a reduction to pay grade E-4, a forfeiture of $1,213 pay and 45 days of extra duty.

2.  Army Regulation 600-37 (Unfavorable Information) sets forth policy and procedures to authorize placement of unfavorable information about Army members in individual official personnel files, and ensure that the best interest of both the Army and the Soldier are served by authorizing unfavorable information to be placed in and, when appropriate, removed from official personnel files.  It states once an official document has been properly filed in the OMPF, it is presumed to be administratively correct and to have been filed pursuant to an objective decision by competent authority.  

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:

1.  While the applicant was only punished for submitting three fraudulent documents for enclosing in his official records, he now comes forward and contends that six documents contained in his OMPF and recorded in the interactive Personnel Electronic Records Management System (iPERMS) are fraudulent.

2.  Since he has admitted that the documents are fraudulent, it would be appropriate to remove the certificates of training from his OMPF and delete the entries in iPERMS related to the requested courses.

BOARD VOTE:

BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION:

As a result, the Board recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual concerned be corrected by removing the training certificates and deleting the iPERMS entries for the following courses:

* Cyber Network Defense Course
* Combat Casualty Management Course
* Armorer Course
* Master Driver Course
* Sexually Transmitted Disease Intervention Course
* Army Suicide Intervention Course
