	Ms. Gale Thomas		Analyst	

  The following members, a quorum, were present:

	Ms. Jennifer L. Prater		Chairperson	
	Mr. Orville W. Troesch, Jr.		Member	
	Mr. Christopher J. Prosser		Member	

	The applicant and counsel if any, did not appear before the Board.

	The Board considered the following evidence:

	Exhibit A - Application for correction of military 
                records
	Exhibit B - Military Personnel Records (including
	            advisory opinion, if any)

FINDINGS:

1.  The applicant has exhausted or the Board has waived the requirement for exhaustion of all administrative remedies afforded by existing law or regulations.

2.  The applicant requests that his DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty) be corrected to show in item 12f (Foreign Service) 
1 year, 11 months and 28 days.  

3.  The applicant states that the total amount of time is in error because he was assigned to Augsburg, Germany from January 1990 to December 1991.

4.  The applicant’s military records show that his DD Form 214, ending 27 March 1993, shows his foreign service as 11 months and 28 days.

5.  The applicant was assigned to Germany from 4 January 1990 to                  30 December 1991, which equates to 1 year, 11 months and 27 days.  

CONCLUSIONS:

1.  The applicant was assigned to Germany from 4 January 1990 to                  30 December 1991, and therefore, his amount of foreign service on his DD Form 214, ending 27 March 1993, should read 1 year, 11 months and 27 days. 

2.  In view of the foregoing, the applicant’s records should be corrected as recommended below.

RECOMMENDATION:

That all of the Department of the Army records related to this case be corrected by showing the applicant’s foreign service in item 12f on his DD Form 214, ending 27 March 1993, to read 1 year, 11 months and 27 days (011127).
