Privacy Act of 1974; System of Records

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary of Defense, DoD.

ACTION: Notice to alter a System of Records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Office of the Secretary of Defense proposes to alter a 
system of records, DPR 40 DoD, entitled ``Wounded Warrior Care and 
Recovery Transition Coordination Program System Solution'' in its 
inventory of record systems subject to the Privacy Act of 1974, as 
amended.
    This system is used to improve the timeliness, efficacy, and 
transparency of the care, management, and transition of recovering 
Service Members or eligible family members and caregivers receiving 
support (as defined in DoD Instruction 1300.24). Contact information is 
used by case managers to facilitate the uniformity and effectiveness of 
care and/or transition from active duty to temporary or permanent 
retirement for eligible individuals. These records are also used as a 
management tool for statistical analysis, tracking, reporting, 
evaluating program effectiveness and conducting research.

DATES: Comments will be accepted on or before January 29, 2015. This 
proposed action will be effective the date following the end of the 
comment period unless comments are received which result in a contrary 
determination.
