Composition of the OMPF Only those documents listed in tables 2 31 and 2 32 are authorized for filing in the OMPF. Depending on the purpose, the documents will be filed in one of three sections.<br><br> For those OMPFs on microfiche, the sections are as follows: a. The performance (P) fiche. The P fiche is used for filing performance, commendatory, and disciplinary data.<br><br> The P fiche is routinely used by career managers and selection boards. Documents placed on this fiche are limited to those that provide evidence of a soldier 9s demonstrated performance. These documents are used for evaluation and selection purposes.<br><br> (1) This fiche is divided into a performance (P) section and a commendatory and disciplinary (CD) section. Performance data are entered on the P fiche from left to right beginning at the upper left comer. CD data are entered from right to left beginning at the lower right comer.<br><br> No other division or arrangement of images is authorized. Documents will be placed in the P or CD sections as they are received by the custodian. When more than one document is received at the same time, they will be filed in chronological order.<br><br> (2) Documents will not be obliterated or moved from the P fiche unless directed by an authority authorized to 4AR 600 38 3104 " 22 June 2004 correct or move documents filed on the P fiche. (See para 2 34.) On removal of an evaluation report or any part of a report, a HQDA memorandum for record will be placed in the next unused frame of the fiche. This document is filed to explain breaks in evaluation periods or corrections to evaluation reports.<br><br> (3) MPRJ custodians may request a copy of specific documents from a soldiers P fiche if authorized for file in the MPRJ. The OMPF custodian will provide the documents or the cP d fiche (SGT and below) and/or the cS d fiche, as appropriate. (See table 2 33 and fig 2 31.) (4) The complete P fiche will not be released to commanders except under the provisions of this paragraph.<br><br> Commanders, MPD/PSC, or other Department of the Army (DA) agencies may request the complete P fiche, or specific documents thereon, to conduct legal proceedings, investigations, qualitative management, or elimination actions. If there are no legal objections and the OMPF custodian determines the request to be justified, the OMPF custodian may authorize the release of the P fiche. If the request is determined to be legally objectionable or not justified, the request will be returned to the requester by the OMPF custodian with an explanation of the disapproval.<br><br> The custodian 9s servicing staff judge advocate will provide the legal review. b. The service (S) fiche.<br><br> The S fiche is the OMPF section where general information and service data are filed. The fiche is divided into a service computation (SC) section and a general administration (GA) section. Documents will be placed in the SC and GA sections as they are received by the custodian.<br><br> When more than one document is received at the same time, they will be filed in chronological order. SC data will be entered from left to right beginning at the upper left comer of the fiche. GA data will be entered from right to left beginning at the lower right comer of the fiche.<br><br> Documents filed on this fiche are those that must be permanently kept to 4 (1) Record a soldier 9s military service. (2) Manage a soldier 9s career. (3) Protect the interests of both the soldier and the Army.<br><br> c. The restricted (R) fiche. The R fiche is used for historical data that may normally be improper for viewing by selection boards or career managers.<br><br> The release of information on this fiche is controlled. It will not be released without written approval from the CG, PERSCOM; Commander, ARPERCEN; Commander, ARNG Personnel Center, or HQDA selection board proponent. See paragraph 2 36 for guidance on the release of R fiche material.<br><br> Documents on this fiche are those that must be permanently kept to 4 (1) Maintain an unbroken, historical record of a soldier 9s service, conduct, duty performance, and evaluation periods; and corrections to other parts of the OMPF. (2) Record investigation reports. (3) Record appellate action.<br><br> (4) Protect the interest of the soldier and the Army. 2 34. Changing the OMPF a.<br><br> Once placed in the OMPF, the document becomes a permanent part of that file. The document will not be removed from a fiche or moved to another part of the fiche unless directed by the following: (1) The Army Board for Correction of Military Records (ABCMR). (2) The Department of the Army Suitability Evaluation Board (DASEB).<br><br> (3) Army appeal boards. (4) Chief, Appeals and Corrections Branch, PERSCOM.

(7) Chief, Appeals Branch, ARPERCEN. (8) Chief, Appeals Branch, National Guard Personnel Center.<br><br> b. Documents designated for transfer from the P or S fiche will be put on the R fiche, if authorized. c.<br><br> When discovered by the custodian or requested by the soldier concerned, transfer R fiche documents mistakenly filed on the P or S fiche to the R fiche. Unless approved by DCSPER or PERSCOM Promotions Branch, this action does not justify standby or special selection board consideration. 2 35.<br><br> Access to the OMPF The P, S, and R fiche will be given to soldiers on their written request. The P and S fiche and all or part of the R fiche will also be given to a person authorized by the soldier in writing. The OMPF will be released to HQDA elements per DA Memo 640 31.<br><br> 2 36. Release of restricted data filed in the OMPF a. Restricted data will not be given to any other person or agency, without the approval of the CG, PERSCOM; Commander, ARPERCEN; or DA selection board proponent.<br><br> (See c below.) b.

All or part of the R fiche may be given to other requesters who, by the authority of the CG, PERSCOM, the Commander, ARPERCEN, or Commander, ARNG Personnel Center, have a fully justified need for the information. OMPF custodians are delegated the authority to release authenticated copies of the R fiche Article 15 for use in court- martial proceedings when the specific documents requested are identified as existing on the R fiche and the requested documents have not been filed on the R fiche pursuant to action by the ABCMRs.<br><br> The release will be made only upon receipt of a written request and proper justification. (See DA Memo 640 31.) (1) Requests sent to the OMPF custodian.

(d) If the requester wants the R fiche, sends a copy of the request and the R fiche to the appropriate release authority.<br><br> (e) If the justification for the R fiche was included in the original request for the OMPF, sends it and the R fiche to PERSCOM, ARPERCEN, or ARNG PERCEN. (2) When written justification for the R fiche is sent directly to the release authority, a PERSCOM, ARPERCEN, or ARNG PERCEN official will request the R fiche from the OMPF. (3) On receipt of the justification and the R fiche, the official will examine both to decide if the request is legitimate and if it is proper to release the information.<br><br> If the release is disapproved, the fiche will be returned to the custodian and the requester notified. If the release is approved, the following actions will be taken: (a) The release authority, acting on behalf of the Commander, PERSCOM, Commander, ARPERCEN, or Com- mander, ARNG PERCEN, approve and sign a release. The approval will be prepared as shown in figure 2 32.<br><br> (b) A copy of the approval will be sent to the custodian for filing on the soldier 9s R fiche together with the request. (c) The approval will be sent to the requester with the R fiche. When possible, the fiche will be hand carried.<br><br> (4) When the requester has finished using the R fiche, it will be returned to the release authority for destruction. d. Disciplinary information filed on the restricted fiche will be provided to the Command Sergeant Major/sergeant major (CSM/SGM), SGM Academy selection and CSM/SGM retention boards to ensure the best qualified soldiers art selected for these positions of highest trust.<br><br> (1) For purposes of this provision, disciplinary information includes court-martial orders, DA Forms 2627 (Record of Proceedings Under Article 15, UCMJ), and punitive or administrative letters of reprimand, admonition, or censure.

(2) Changes Army Components.<br><br> (3) Enlists or reenlists within 24 hours after discharge. (4) Changes status within an Army Component (such as, Active Army enlisted to Active Army warrant officer, Active Army commissioned officer to Active Army enlisted, and so forth). In these cases, the OMPF custodian sends the OMPF to the new custodian.<br><br> (a) When enlisted soldiers are appointed as commissioned or warrant officers, their enlisted OMPF will be collocated with their new officer OMPF. The enlisted OMPF, however, will not be released to officer selection boards. Awards and decorations will be transferred to the newly created officer P fiche.<br><br> For those enlisted soldiers who were appointed or commissioned prior to February 1981, records of courts-martial conviction will be filed on their respective officer R fiche. (b) When officers change status to enlisted, their officer OMPF will be collocated with their new enlisted OMPF (except in the case of former ARNG officers).

For officers changing status to enlisted, officer performance, commendatory, and disciplinary data will be filmed on a separate P fiche of the enlisted OMPF. This fiche will be marked to show officer data and may be released to selection boards.<br><br> b. When a soldier reenters the Army after a break in service, the old OMPF will be sent from ARPERCEN or the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) to the appropriate OMPF custodian. The custodian may transfer all documents to a new OMPF or may continue to use the old OMPF, as appropriate.<br><br> Tables 2 31 and 2 32 will be used for filing guidance. c. OMPF 9s will be transferred between custodians when a member changes Army components.<br><br> d. DD Form 127 (Case Routing Slip) will be used by OMPF custodians to enroute actions and correspondence to the correct OMPF custodian. 2 38.<br><br> Soldier 9s request for a personal copy of their OMPF a. Soldiers may forward a written request for a copy of their OMPF directly to the OMPF custodian. (Table 2 33 gives the address of OMPF custodians.) Requests must include the soldier 9s name, grade, social security number (SSN), mailing address, and signature.<br><br> b. AD enlisted soldiers may also obtain a copy of their OMPF by telephonic request through the Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS), DSN 699 33714, commercial (317) 542 33714. The request must be made from a push button phone.<br><br> OMPF mailed out based upon telephonic request will be mailed only to the soldier 9s military address. 2 39. Forwarding performance fiche on USAR soldiers a.<br><br> The OMPFs on USAR soldiers, not on AD in the Active Army and counted against the end strength of the Active Army, will be maintained at ARPERCEN. ARPERCEN is authorized to release the P fiche on Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) and troop program unit (TPU) soldiers to the numbered armies in the continental United States (CONUSA) on request under the following circumstances: (1) For use by Unit Vacancy Promotion Boards. (2) In conducting LTC and COL Command Selection Boards.<br><br> 7 AR 600 38 3104 " 22 June 2004 b. Any exception to the above policy must be addressed on an individual basis to Commander, ARPERCEN, ATTN: DARP 3ZPO, 9700 Page Boulevard, St. Louis, MO 63132 35200.<br><br> c. In cases where the P fiche has been released to CONUSA, the measures indicated in (1) through (3) below will be taken to safeguard the confidentiality and security of the data. ARPERCEN will release the P fiche only to the requesting CONUSA and not to any subordinate command of the CONUSA.<br><br> (1) The data will be for board use only. (2) Only the data on the P fiche germane to the board proceedings as identified in the criteria for selection will be examined. Under no circumstances will other documents shown on the P fiche be used in making decisions on selection.<br><br> (3) In view of the sensitive nature of these records, CONUSA commanders ensure that individual P fiches art destroyed after each board. Section II Task: Receive and Forward Documents to the OMPF/CMIF 2 310. Rules for receiving and forwarding documents to the OMPF/CMIF a.<br><br> All documents for filing in the OMPF must be sent through the MPD/PSC or State adjutants general office if applicable, except the following documents may be sent directly to the OMPF custodian: (1) Accession or enlistment packets (U.S. Military Enlistment Processing Command (MEPCOM) or Retention Work Centers). (2) Documents personally given to an OMPF official.<br><br> (3) Documents originating at DA level. b. Ensure the soldiers 9 name and SSN appear on the first page of each document sent.<br><br> SSN and name will be underlined on first page. If not, write (blocked letters with black ink) or type on first page of each document. Copies must be clear and legible copies, suitable for microfilming.<br><br> When documents contain multiple names on the same document (such as award orders, award of parachute badge, and so forth) the issuing headquarters must furnish the OMPF custodian one copy per name (SSN and name must be underlined.) 2 311.
