	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	
	Mrs. Nancy Amos		Analyst	

  The following members, a quorum, were present:

	Ms. Celia L. Adolphi		Chairperson	
	Mr. Arthur A. Omartian		Member	
	Mr. Harry B. Oberg		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 her enlistment contract be corrected to show she enlisted in pay grade E-2.

3.  The applicant states that her enlistment contract erroneously shows she enlisted in pay grade E-4.

4.  The applicant’s U. S. Army Recruiting Command reservation sheet shows and the U. S. Army Recruiting Command Liaison at Fort Leonard Wood, MO confirms that she enlisted in the Regular Army on 28 August 2001 in pay grade E-2.  Her Enlistment/Reenlistment Contract, DD Form 4/3, item 21a erroneously shows she enlisted in pay grade E-4.

CONCLUSIONS:

1.  There is an administrative error on the applicant’s DD Form 4/3.  The evidence of record shows she enlisted on 28 August 2001 in pay grade E-2, not in pay grade E-4.

2.  In view of the foregoing, the applicant’s records should be corrected as recommended below.

RECOMMENDATION:

That the applicant’s DD Form 4/3 dated 28 August 2001, item 21a be corrected to show she enlisted in pay grade E-2.
