                       RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 
         AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 
 
 
DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2012-00367 
IN THE MATTER OF: 
 
COUNSEL:  NONE 
   
HEARING DESIRED:  NOT INDICATED 
   
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 
 
Her Home of Record (HOR) be changed to El Paso TX. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 
 
She did not realize that Pennsylvania (PA) was still considered 
her  HOR.    Her  mother  lives  in  PA  and  she  has  not  lived  in  PA 
since entering the Air Force in 1987.  
 
She  was  not  aware  that  she  needed  to  have  her  separation 
documents reflect Texas (TX) as her HOR. 
 
In  support  of  her  appeal,  the  applicant  provides  a  personal 
statement and a letter from her bank. 
 
The  applicant’s  complete  submission,  with  attachment,  is  at 
Exhibit A. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
STATEMENT OF FACTS: 
 
The relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained 
in  the  letter  prepared  by  the  appropriate  office  of  the  Air 
Force.  Accordingly, there is no need to recite these facts in 
this Record of Proceedings. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
AFPC/DPSIPE  recommends  denial  of  the  applicant's  request  to 
change her HOR from Philadelphia, PA to EL Paso, TX. There was 
no error or justification that warrants a change in her HOR. 
 
The  applicant's  records  reflect  Philadelphia,  PA  as  the 
city/state  in  which  she  lived  prior  to  entering  the  United 
States  Air  Force  (USAF)  enlisted  ranks.    In  addition, 
Philadelphia,  PA  has  been  consistently  listed  throughout  the 

member's military records and was listed as her HOR and Place of 
Entry  into  the  USAF  on  15 Jun 1981.    Due  to  this  finding,  the 
applicant's  HOR  is  Philadelphia,  PA.    The  Joint  Federal  Travel 
Regulations  (JFTR)  for  Uniformed  Service  Members,  Appendix  A 
states  that  the  "Home  of  Record"  is  the  place  recorded  as  the 
home  of  the  individual  when  commissioned,  appointed,  enlisted, 
inducted, or ordered into a tour of active duty.  Therefore, the 
applicant's HOR should remain Philadelphia, PA, unless otherwise 
directed by the board. 
 
The  complete  DPSIPE  evaluation,  with  attachment,  is  at 
Exhibit C. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
The  applicant  reviewed  the  advisory  opinion  and  furnished  a 
response which is attached at Exhibit E. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 
 
1.  The  applicant  has  exhausted  all  remedies  provided  by 
existing law or regulations. 
 
2.  The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the 
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file. 
 
3.  Insufficient  relevant  evidence  has  been  presented  to 
demonstrate the existence of error or injustice.  After careful 
consideration of applicant's request and the available evidence 
of  record,  we  find  insufficient  evidence  of  error  or  injustice 
to  warrant  corrective  action.    The  facts  and  opinion  stated  by 
the  Air  Force  office  of  primary  responsibility  appear  to  be 
based  on  the  evidence  of  record  and  have  not  been  adequately 
rebutted  by  the  applicant.    Absent  convincing  evidence  the 
applicant has been denied rights to which entitled, appropriate 
directives were not followed, or appropriate standards were not 
applied,  we  find  no  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.
