RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2007-03169
INDEX: 112.01
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Home of Record (HOR) be changed from Bethlehem, Pennsylvania to
Brandon, Florida.
_________________________________________________________________
THE APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
After he left for active duty his parents moved out of state and he has no
further connection to his original HOR. His wife is from Florida and that
is where they want to be after his time with the Air Force.
In support of his appeal, he submitted a copy of his marriage license and a
personal statement.
Applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving on active duty in the grade of first
lieutenant.
The AF Form 766, Extended Active Duty Order, dated 30 Apr 05 reflects his
HOR as Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOA recommends the requested relief be denied. DPSOA states the HOR
is defined as the place recorded as the home of the service member when
commissioned, appointed, enlisted, inducted or ordered into a tour of
active duty. It can only be changed if there is a break in service of one
full day or a bona fide error was made in recording the information given
by the service member. DPSOA further states there is no evidence the
applicant’s HOR is incorrect. He was not commissioned in and placed on
active duty in Florida and may not choose Florida as his HOR. If he serves
until minimum retirement eligibility he will be eligible to choose Florida
as his home of selection and receive entitlements.
The complete AFPC/DPSOA evaluation is at Exhibit B.
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 7 Dec
07, for review and response 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 an injustice. Applicant’s contentions are duly
noted; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation of the Air
Force office of primary responsibility and adopt its rationale as the basis
for our conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an error
or an injustice. Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we
find no compelling basis to recommend granting the relief sought in 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.
