PART IV - PREHEARING REVIEW

SECTION A-ANALYST’S ASSESSMENT
l. Facts and Circumstances:

         a. The evidence of record shows that on 2 March 1994, Orders 56-05, DA, 258 th Personnel Service Company, Wuerzburg, APO Army Europe, discharged applicant from the Regular Army, effective date: 28 March 1994. The applicant signed DD Form 214, indicating the following facts: Character of service is an under other than honorable conditions discharge under the provisions of Chapter 10, AR 635-200, in lieu of trial by court-martial.

         b. On 28 March 1994, the applicant was discharged with an under other than honorable conditions discharge, under the provisions of Chapter l0, AR 635-200, in lieu of trial by court-martial. At the time of discharge, the applicant had
1 year, 5 months, and 14 days on his current enlistment.

 2. Legal/Regulatory Basis for Separation Action : Army Regulation 635-200 sets forth the basic authority for the separation of enlisted personnel. Chapter l0 of that regulation provides, in pertinent part, that a member who has committed an offense or offenses for which the authorized punishment includes a punitive discharge may submit a request for a discharge for the good of the service in lieu of trial by court-martial. The requests may be submitted at any time after charges have been preferred and must include the individual’s admission of guilt.
