2. The applicant requests, in effect, correction of his military records to show that he enlisted for a term of 3 years vice 8 years. 3. The applicant enlisted in the Army Reserve on 31 March 1997. His DD Form 4/1 shows that he agreed to serve on active duty for 3 years. He enlisted in the Regular Army on 26 August 1997. His DD Form 4/3 shows that he enlisted for 8 years. Additional documents signed by the applicant and the enlistment counselor indicate enlistment for 3 years. 4. In an advisory opinion to the Board, the Total Army Personnel Command (PERSCOM) advised that the DD Form 4/3 incorrectly shows enlistment for 8 years. PERSCOM recommended approval of the applicant’s request. CONCLUSIONS: 1. Based on the evidence of record, it appears that it was the applicant’s intent to enlist in the Regular Army for a period of 3 years. However, an error was made on the DD Form 4/3. 2. In view of the foregoing, it would be appropriate and just to correct the applicant’s records as recommended below. RECOMMENDATION: That all of the Department of the Army records related to this case be corrected by amending the DD Form 4/3 to show that he enlisted for 3 years.
