MEMORANDUM OF CONSIDERATION

	IN THE CASE OF:      

	BOARD DATE:           10 April 2001                  
	DOCKET NUMBER:   AR2000050746

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

	Mr. Carl W. S. Chun		Director	
	Mr. Lee Cates		Analyst	

  The following members, a quorum, were present:

	Ms. Sherri V. Ward		Chairperson	
	Mr. George D. Paxson 		Member	
	Mr. James E. Anderholm		Member	

	The Board, established pursuant to authority contained in 10 U.S.C. 1552, convened at the call of the Chairperson on the above date.  In accordance with Army Regulation 15-185, the application and the available military records pertinent to the corrective action requested were reviewed to determine whether to authorize a formal hearing, recommend that the records be corrected without a formal hearing, or to deny the application without a formal hearing if it is determined that insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the existence of probable material error or injustice.

	The applicant requests correction of military records as stated in the application to the Board and as restated herein.

	The Board considered the following evidence:

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

APPLICANT REQUESTS: That his separation document dated 30 January 1984 be corrected to show 23 February 1984. 

APPLICANT STATES: That after attending the Quartermaster Officer Basic Course (QMOBC) he immediately went to Airborne School, in an active duty for training (ADT) status.  He submits USAR Control Group (AT), Reserve Component Personnel Administration Center (RCPAC) Orders T-07-324889 (self-terminating) and T-11-334451 (self-terminating) in support of his request.

EVIDENCE OF RECORD: The applicant's military records show:

During the period 24 August 1983 to 30 January 1984, the applicant attended the QMOBC per order T-07-324889.

On 30 January 1984, the applicant was released from active duty per the self-terminating orders.  He was issued a DD Form 214 for this period of service, in accordance with Army Regulation 635-5 (Personnel Separation Documents).

Order T-11-334451 ordered the applicant to the USA Infantry School, Fort Benning, Georgia, for a second period of ADT, to attend airborne training effective 3 February 1984 for 22 days.  This duty is creditable for pay and retirement purposes.

Army Regulation 635-5 indicates, in pertinent part, that “a DD Form 214 will be prepared for soldiers completing 90 days or more of continuous ADT (active duty for training), FTNGD (full-time National Guard Duty), or active duty support.”

DISCUSSION:  Considering all the evidence, allegations, and information presented by the applicant, together with the evidence of record, applicable law and regulations, it is concluded:

1.  The applicant is not entitled to a change of his DD Form 214.  He has not shown error or injustice.  Pertinent regulations show that the applicant qualified for issuance of a DD Form 214 for his first tour of duty, which was issued.

2.  His second tour of duty for airborne training was not included with the previous ADT and did not require issuance of a DD Form 214.

3.  It is further noted that all of his ADT service is creditable for pay and retirement.

4.  In order to justify correction of a military record, the applicant must show to the satisfaction of the Board, or it must otherwise satisfactorily appear, that the record is in error or unjust.  The applicant has failed to submit evidence that would satisfy this requirement.
5.  In view of the foregoing, there is no basis for granting the applicant's request.

DETERMINATION:  The applicant has failed to submit sufficient relevant evidence to demonstrate the existence of probable error or injustice.
