RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS

                                        INDEX CODE:  112.01
  XXXXXXX                               COUNSEL: None

                                        HEARING DESIRED: No

MANDATORY COMPLETION DATE: 6 OCTOBER 2007

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His home of record (HOR) be changed from XXXXXXX, FL, to Roanoke, IN.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

It was unclear to him at the time of enlistment as  to  what  his  HOR
should be. He entered the address of the place he lived in  before  he
entered Officer Training School (OTS). He has since moved out  of  the
apartment he lived in prior to OTS. He needs to change his HOR to  his
parent's address. At this time (and in the future), their address will
be his accurate, permanent HOR.

Applicant's complete submission, with attachment, is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

Applicant enlisted in the Air Force Reserve on 7 September 2005 at the
XXXXXXX FL Military Entrance  Processing  Station  (MEPS).  Enlistment
records showed his HOR as XXXXXXX FL since this was the location  from
which he enlisted.

HOR is defined as the place recorded as the home of the individual  at
the time they enlisted, were commissioned,  or  initially  ordered  to
active duty.  It is recorded in the military personnel record for  the
sole  purpose  of   determining   transportation   entitlements   upon
separation, or those of dependents in the event of  a  member’s  death
while on active duty.

On 13 April 2006, DPPAE notified the applicant in writing  to  provide
evidence that he was a resident of and paid taxes, if any in  Indiana.
To provide a copy of said driver's license, voter  registration  card,
etc  issued  before  enlistment  showing  Indiana  was  his  HOR.  The
applicant has not provided any documentation to properly evaluate  his
claim.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPAE recommended denial and states  the  applicant  must  submit
documentation showing the current HOR was a bona fide error.

A complete copy of the Air Force evaluation is at Exhibit C.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A complete copy of the evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 21
July 2006 for review and comment within 30 days.  As of this date,  no
response has been received by this office.

_________________________________________________________________

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 an error or injustice.  Applicant’s  contentions  are
duly noted; however, he has provided no evidence, which would lead  us
to believe the HOR currently reflected in his records was  incorrectly
recorded at  the  time  he  was  initially  ordered  to  active  duty.
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to  the  contrary,  we  find  no
basis upon which to recommend favorable action on this application.

_________________________________________________________________

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.
