	BOARD DATE:            6 April 2000      
	DOCKET NUMBER:   AR2000036108

	I certify that hereinafter is recorded the true and complete record of the proceedings of the Army Board for Correction of Military Records in the case of the above-named individual.  

	Ms. Deborah L. Brantley		Senior Analyst	

  The following members, a quorum, were present:

	Mr. John N. Slone		Chairperson	
	Mr. Ernest M. Willcher		Member	
	Mr. James E. Anderholm		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 military records be corrected to reflect that his correct social security account number (SSAN) is _ vice _ _ _-_ _.  He states that he used his driver’s license to verify his SSAN when he enlisted in the Army but has since received a copy of his SSAN card reflecting the correct SSAN.  In support of his request he submits copies of his SSAN card.

3.  Records available to the Board indicate the applicant enlisted in the USAR on 9 May 1997 under the delayed entry program and entered active duty on 
13 August 1997.  His entire military personnel file was initiated using the incorrect SSAN and his OMPF is currently filed under the wrong SSAN in the Army’s enlisted automated personnel file system (PERMS).

CONCLUSIONS:

1.  The evidence clearly indicates that the applicant’s correct SSAN is  and that it was recorded erroneously as  at the time of his entry on active duty.  To preclude future confusion in the applicant’s file it would be appropriate to correct his records to reflect his correct SSAN.

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 that the applicant’s correct SSAN is  vice .
