ABCMR Record of Proceedings (cont) AR20060004286
THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, STATEMENT, AND EVIDENCE:
1. The applicant requests that his Certificate of Release or Discharge (DD Form 214) be corrected to include that he served in a pershing missile crewmember (15E10) military occupational specialty (MOS).
2. The applicant states that he enlisted in the United States Army under a 15E10 enlistment training option and it is not reflected on his DD Form 214.
3. The applicant provides in support of his application, a copy of amendment orders dated 2April 1985, that show he was awarded a 15E10 MOS.
CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:
1. On 19 November 1984, he enlisted in the United States Army Reserve, for 8years, in the pay grade of E-1. He enlisted in the Regular Army on 28December 1984, and his enlistment contract shows a Training Enlistment Program Option of 15E10 and he was assured of attending a school course for MOS 15E10.
2. Orders were published on 12 March 1985, awarding the applicant a 15E10 Primary MOS (PMOS). Amendment orders were published on 2 April 1985, awarding him a 15E10Y1 PMOS.
3. The applicant's records show that he reenlisted in the Army for 3 years on 29June 1987, and at that time, he was assigned in a 15E10 PMOS. However, he was reenlisting under a quartermaster and chemical equipment repairer(63J) training reenlistment option.
4. After completing 7 years, 2 months and 4 days of net active service, the applicant was honorably released from active duty for the Convenience of the Government, under the Fiscal Year 1992 Early Transition Program. The DD Form 214 that he was furnished at the time of his release from active duty shows that he served in a cannon fire direction specialist (13E10) PMOS for 1 year and 3 months; that he served in a quartermaster and chemical equipment repairer
(63J10) MOS for 2 years and 6 months; and that he served in a cannon crewmember (13B10) MOS for 1 year and 3 months. Nonetheless, the time that he served in a 15E10 PMOS is not included on his DD Form 214.
5. Army Regulation 635-5 serves as the authority for the preparation of the DD Form 214. It provides, in pertinent part, that only those specialties that have been awarded in accordance with Army Regulation 611-201 and that have been held for at least 1 year, are authorized for entry on the DD Form 214.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
1. It appears that an error was made during the preparation of the applicant's DD Form 214, which resulted in the omission of the 15E10 MOS.
2. The evidence of record shows that he was awarded the 15E10 MOS on 12March 1985, and that at the time of his reenlistment on 29 June 1987, he was still performing the duties of a 15E10.
3. He held a 15E10 MOS for approximately 2 yearsand 3 months, and in accordance with the applicable regulation, the MOS should be reflected on his DD Form 214. Accordingly, the applicant's DD Form 214 should include the 15E10 MOS.
4. In view of the foregoing, it would now be appropriate to correct the applicant's records as recommended below.
