BOARD DISCUSSION:

After reviewing the application and all supporting documents, the Board found relief was 
not warranted.  Based upon the documentary evidence in the record, the Board found a 
DD Form 214 with the requested dates already noted; the service credit requested is 
already captured on a DD Form 214.  As a result, the Board concluded there was 
insufficient evidence of a need for correction to the service record.

BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION:

The evidence presented does not demonstrate the existence of a probable error or 
injustice.  Therefore, the Board determined the overall merits of this case are insufficient 
as a basis for correction of the records of the individual concerned.

	  
I certify that herein is recorded the true and complete record of the proceedings of the 
Army Board for Correction of Military Records in their case.
