	Exhibit D - Prior proceedings

THE BOARD ADDITIONALLY FINDS:

18.  In the preparation of the applicant's file for execution of the Board's direction to afford him a promotion review, it was discovered that the applicant had the potential entitlement of retention for one additional year beyond his normal mandatory removal date (MRD) under the provisions of National Guard Regulation (NGR) 635-100 paragraph 6f.

19.  NGR 635-100, paragraph 6f states, in pertinent, part that Army National Guard Technicians may be extended beyond their normal mandatory release date in order to be eligible for immediate Civil Service retirement provided they are otherwise fully qualified.

THE BOARD ADDITIONALLY CONCLUDES: 

8.  Based on the applicant's years of commissioned service, the applicant's MRD is one year less than the date that he would be eligible for a full Civil Service retirement based on his age.  

9.  In view of the additional factors in this case, the Board concludes that it is in the interest of justice to grant the applicant a one-year extension of his MRD to enable him to retire at age 55 with full civil service retirement benefits.  

10.  In view of the foregoing findings and conclusions, it would be appropriate to correct the applicant’s records as recommended below.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS:

That all of the Department of the Army records related to this case be corrected by amending by adding to the Board’s recommendation appearing in the proceedings, dated 23 May 2001:

	c.  to show that the individual concerned was granted a one year extension beyond his normal mandatory release date.
