RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-03414 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

His home of record (HOR) be changed from Middleton, 
Massachusetts (MA) to Danvers, MA. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

His home of record is Danvers, MA not Middleton, MA. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit A. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant is a former member of the Air Force who served 
from 6 May 2008 through 5 May 2012. His DD Form 4/1, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document Armed Forces of the United 
States, reflects Middleton, MA as his home of record at the time 
of his enlistment. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIPE recommends denial. The applicant’s records reflect 
Middleton, MA as the home of record where he resided prior to 
entering the Air Force. The DD Form 4 is the source document 
for the HOR. That same address is listed on the applicant’s 
DD Form 1966, Record of Military Processing – Armed Forces of 
the United States, dated 15 December 2007 and confirmed on 5 May 
2008. 

 

The Joint Federal Travel Regulation for Uniformed Service 
Members Appendix A states 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. Any correction made to a member’s HOR must be fully 
justified and the home, as corrected, must be the member’s 


actual home upon entering the service, and not a different place 
selected for the member’s convenience. 

 

There was no error or justification that warrants a change in 
the member’s home of record. 

 

The complete DPSIPE 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 1 October 2012, for review and comment within 
30 days (Exhibit D). 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 error or injustice. The 
applicant’s contentions are duly noted; however, he has provided 
no evidence which would lead us to believe the home of record or 
his place of entry currently reflected in his records was 
incorrectly recorded at the time he initially came on active 
duty. Therefore, 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 injustice. In the absence of 
evidence to the contrary, 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.
