                         PART IV - PREHEARING REVIEW

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

      a.  Evidence of record shows that on 27 January 2003, DA, HQ, 99th
Regional Support Command; 99 Soldiers Lane, Coraopolis, PA, Orders 03-027-
00031 discharged the applicant from the United States Army Reserve,
effective 6 January 2003.  The specific facts and circumstances pertaining
to the applicant’s discharge are not contained in the available records.

      b.  On 6 January 2003, the applicant was discharged.  At the time of
discharge, the applicant had completed 5 months, and 8 days of active
military service.

2.  Legal/Regulatory Basis for Separation Action:  Army Regulation 135-178
sets forth the basic authority for the separation of enlisted personnel.
Chapter 7, establishes policy and prescribes procedures for separating
members for fraudulent entry.  Fraudulent entry is the procurement of an
enlistment, reenlistment, or period of active service through any
deliberate material misrepresentation, omission, or concealment of
information, which, if known and considered by the Army at the time of
enlistment or reenlistment might have resulted in rejection.  This includes
all disqualifying information requiring a waiver.  The service of a member
separated under this provision of Army Regulation 135-178 will be
characterized as honorable, general or under other than honorable
conditions as warranted by his or her military record.

                        PART VI - ISSUES AND FINDINGS

1.  a.  Applicant's issue(s) of propriety and/or equity:

          ( X )  Same as those listed on DD Form 293 and Part IV, Section A
              of this case report and directive.

      b.  Request:  ( X ) Recharacterization     (   ) Change of Reason

2.  Finding(s), conclusion(s), and reason(s) for the Board's decision(s) on
issues of propriety and/or equity:

      a.  Propriety:   The applicant has not submitted an issue of
                   propriety and the ADRB has not otherwise relied upon an
                   issue of propriety to change the discharge.

      b.  Equity:      The parenthetical number(s) below correspond(s) to
                   the issue number(s) on the DD Form 293, or in Part VI,
                   Paragraph 1, above.

        (1)  The issue is rejected.  The applicant’s record is void of
facts and circumstances concerning events that led to a discharge from the
Reserve of the Army.  The evidence of record shows that on 27 January 2003,
DA, HQ, 99th Regional Support Command; 99 Soldiers Lane, Coraopolis, PA,
Orders 03-027-00031 discharged the applicant from the United States Army
Reserve, effective 6 January 2003, with service uncharacterized.  This
document identifies the reason and characterization of the discharge and
the Board presumed government regularity in the discharge process.  The
Board, being convinced that the reason for discharge and the
characterization of service were proper and equitable, voted to deny
relief.

3.  Response(s) to item(s) not addressed as decisional issue(s):  NONE

                           PART VII - BOARD ACTION
                   SECTION A - Conclusions/Decisions/Vote

1.    Board conclusion(s):

      ( X ) Proper.
      (   ) Improper as to characterization.  Change characterization to
                                               .
      (   ) Improper as to reason.  Change reason to
                                   under                      .

      ( X ) Equitable.
      (   ) Inequitable as to characterization.  Change characterization to
                                         .
      (   ) Inequitable as to reason.  Change reason to
                                 
            under                                 .
      (   ) Both proper and equitable, but characterization/reason for
           separation cited was an administrative/clerical error and should
           be changed to                      under
                                   .

2.  Voting record:      Change   No Change
                  Reason       0         5
