	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.  

	Ms. Gale Thomas		Analyst	

  The following members, a quorum, were present:

	Ms. Jennifer L. Prater 		Chairperson	
	Mr. Orville W. Troesch, Jr.		Member	
	Mr. Christopher J. Prosser		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 his records be corrected by changing his social security number on his DD Form 214 (Report of Separation) effective 12 March 1968 to read _ _ _-4_-_ _ _ _.  

3.  The applicant states that his social security number was typed erroneously when his discharge paper was prepared.  In support of his request the applicant submits a copy of his DD Form 214, a copy of his social security card, and a copy of his birth certificate.  

4.  The applicant’s social security number on his DD Form 214, effective           23 December 1969, shows his social security number as _ _ _ -9_-_ _ _ _.  

5.  The applicant’s social security card, as well as other documents in his military records shows his social security number as _ _ _-4_- _ _ _ _ .  

CONCLUSIONS:

1.  The applicant’s correct social security number is _ _ _-4_-_ _ _ _ , as verified by his social security card and various documents from his records, therefore his DD Form 214 should be changed to reflect the correct number.  

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 changing item 2, on the applicant’s DD Form 214 effective 23 December 1969, to show his social security number as _ _ _-4_-_ _ _ _ .
