AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2005-02814
INDEX CODE: 128.02
XXXXXXXXXXXXX COUNSEL: NONE
XXXXXXXXXX HEARING DESIRED: NO
MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE: 17 March 2007
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Household Goods (HHG) be placed in long-term storage in Lancaster,
California or delivered to his current address in Lake Stevens, Washington.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was under the impression his HHG was placed in long-term storage in
North Carolina.
In support of his application, the applicant submits a personal memorandum;
and, copies of application for shipment and/or storage of personal property
and his discharge order. The applicant’s complete submission, with
attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
According to his military personnel records the applicant was relieved from
active duty on 31 July 2005 and retired effective 1 August 2005. He served
26 years and 1 day of active duty.
On 21 April 2005, the applicant signed a DD Form 1299, Application for
Shipment and/or Storage of Personal Property, indicating shipment of his
HHG from Goldsboro, NC to Lancaster, CA. His shipment of HHG moved under
Government Bill of Lading (GBL) ZY-415950 with a net weight of 10,640
pounds and arrived at destination on 27 June 2005. His HHG was placed in
storage-in-transit (SIT) for 90 days. On 18 August 2005, the traffic
management office at Edwards AFB, CA received a DD Form 1857, Temporary
Commercial Storage at Government Expense, from the applicant requesting
extension of the storage as he did not have a delivery address. The
storage was extended until 23 December 2005.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
JPPSO-SAT/ECAF recommends denial of the applicant’s request. ECAF states
in accordance with paragraph U5365-C, Joint Federal Travel Regulation
(JFTR), a retired member who is entitled to HHG transportation, is entitled
to nontemporary storage (NTS). The entitlement begins on the date the
orders are issued and terminates one year from the date of termination of
active duty. NTS is authorized at the point where the HHG are located when
the orders are issued. The HHG may not be transported to some other place
and placed in long-term storage. Reshipment of the same HHG under one
entitlement is prohibited. In accordance with paragraph U5318, JFTR, HHG
transportation shall not be made for a member’s convenience to some other
place for re-transportation later.
It is ECAF’s opinion that documentation clearly indicates the applicant’s
intention to ship his HHG to Lancaster, CA. The HHG counselor could not
have selected Lancaster, CA, as the destination to ship the applicant’s HHG
without input from him. The ECAF evaluation, with attachments, is at
Exhibit C.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 15
October 2005 for review and comment within 30 days. As of this date, this
office has received no response.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1. The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by existing law or
regulations.
2. The application was timely filed.
3. Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the
existence of probable error or injustice. The applicant contends he was
under the impression his HHG was in long-term storage in North Carolina and
now wishes his HHG be shipped to Lake Stevens, WA at government expense.
However, evidence shows the applicant agreed to have his HHG shipped to
Lancaster, CA, upon his separation from active duty and subsequently
requested an extension of storage until 23 December 2005. We note in
accordance with the JFTR, reshipment of the same HHG under one entitlement
is prohibited. Therefore, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of
the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt their rationale as
the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of
an error or injustice. In view of the above, we find no basis upon which
to favorably consider the applicant’s request.
_________________________________________________________________
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not demonstrate
the existence of material error or injustice; that the application was
denied without a personal appearance; and that the application will only be
reconsidered upon the submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not
considered with this application.

It appears that in each instance that the applicant requested an extension for non-temporary storage (NTS) of his household goods (HHG), he was informed that the request for extension was approved; however, he was not advised there would be a cost to him commencing one year after termination of active duty.
