IN THE CASE OF: BOARD DATE: 14 April 2015 DOCKET NUMBER: AR20150005814 THE BOARD CONSIDERED THE FOLLOWING EVIDENCE: 1. Application for correction of military records (with supporting documents provided, if any). 2. Military Personnel Records and advisory opinions (if any). CONSIDERATION OF ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE: 13. On 7 April 2015, new information was received from the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) and the applicant in regard to the decision of the Army Board for Correction of Military Records (ABCMR) in Docket Number AR20130022069, dated 11 September 2014. 14. The evidence submitted consists of a letter from DFAS informing him of a collection of active duty pay and allowances from 23 September 2008 through 31 December 2008 in the amount of $26,010.19 and retired pay payment in the amount of $4,123.56 (applied to the debt). ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: 4. At the time of the decision of the ABCMR in Docket Number AR20130022069, dated 11 September 2014, it was the intent of the ABCMR to make the applicant’s record as administratively correct as it should properly have been at the time. 5. The ABCMR's decision in Docket Number AR20130022069, erroneously stated in the: a. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS: “2. Therefore, given the opinion of the USAPDA after an evaluation of the applicant’s case, it appears it would be in the interest of justice to void his 31 December 2008 discharge and show he was retired by reason of temporary disability under the provisions of Army Regulation 635-40, with a 30% disability rating (temporary rating of 50%) effective 23 September 2008 [emphasis added], and that he was removed from the TDRL effective 1 April 2009 and permanently retired by reason of permanent disability with a 60% disability rating, with entitlement to all back retired pay that flows from that change, less any funds already received.” b. BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION: "Issuing him new orders, effective 23 September 2008 [emphasis added], showing he was retired due to temporary disability with a 30% disability rating (50% temporary disability) under the provisions of Army Regulation 635-40." 6. On 2 December 2014, the U.S. Army Physical Disability Agency published Orders 336-54 placing him on the TDRL effective 23 September 2008 and removing him from the TDRL effective 1 April 2009 because of permanent disability. 7. The effective date of placement on the TDRL should have been 31 December 2008. It is clear that the intent of the Board is to grant relief but the wording of the recommendation was not accurate. Therefore, in order to avoid penalizing the applicant and in order to satisfy the DFAS requirement to state the correct date of placement on the TDRL, the recommendation in ABCMR Docket Number AR20130022069, dated 11 September 2014, should be amended as shown below.

SAMR-RBR 21 April 2015 MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD SUBJECT: AR20150005814, Supplemental Record of Proceeding (ROP) - Administrative Error On Tuesday, 21 April 2015, Team 2 identified an administrative error in subject as above Record of Proceeding (ROP), paragraph "BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION." When the ROP was prepared, an inadvertent error was made when identifying the "Order" number to be corrected. The ROP identifies "voiding Orders 331-0116" when it should have stated "voiding Orders 333-0116." To ensure the proper corrective action is taken, I crossed through the wrong number and inserted the correct number. Additionally, I initialed the change and will add this memorandum for record to the official file.
