	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	
	Ms. Deborah L. Brantley		Senior Analyst	

  The following members, a quorum, were present:

	Mr. George D. Paxson		Chairperson	
	Mr. Curtis L. Greenway		Member	
	Mr. Allen L. Raub		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 her records be corrected to show that she enlisted for a period of 4 years.  She states that her term of enlistment in item 8 of her DD Form 4/1 (Enlistment/Reenlistment Document Armed Forces of the United States) should reflect 4 and not 3 years.

3.  The applicant’s military records show that she enlisted in the Regular Army for a period of 4 years on 19 July 2000.  However, item 8 of the DD Form 4/1 reflects an incorrect term of service of 3 years.  Her term of service is correctly reflected in all of her other enlistment documents.

CONCLUSIONS:

1.  The evidence of record shows that item 8 on the applicant’s DD Form 4/1 should show that she enlisted in the Regular Army for a period of 4 years vice 
3 years.

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 term of enlistment on her DD Form 4/1, item 8, as 
4 years.
