	BOARD DATE:            29 August 2000
	DOCKET NUMBER:   AR2000041688

	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.  

	Mr. Carl W. S. Chun		Director	
	Mr. Hubert S. Shaw, Jr.		Analyst	

  The following members, a quorum, were present:

	Mr. John D. Miller		Chairperson	
	Mr. Roger Able		Member	
	Mr. Charles Gainor		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 correction of the mailing address on his DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty).

3.  The applicant states, in effect, that the city in item 19a (Mailing Address After Separation) should be “Raeford”, not Fayetteville.

4.  The applicant’s military records show that he was retired by reason of disability on 20 October 1999.

5.  Item 19a of the applicant’s discharge document shows “FAYETTEVILE, NC 28376”.  The U.S. Postal Service states that zip code 28376 is located in Raeford, North Carolina.

CONCLUSIONS:

1.  Evidence shows that zip code 28376 is Raeford NC; therefore, item 19a of his DD Form 214 should be corrected to show the entry “RAEFORD, NC 28376”.

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 address in block 19a of the DD Form 214 of the individual concerned is “RAEFORD, NC 28376”.
