RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

 

IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2012-03907 

 

 COUNSEL: NONE 

 

 HEARING DESIRED: NO 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

 

Her home of record (HOR) be changed from East Tawas, Michigan 
(MI) to Kenai, Alaska (AK). 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 

 

Her family no longer lives in Michigan. Her parents sold their 
home in Michigan and purchased a home in Alaska. She plans to 
reside there and attend school. 

 

The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

STATEMENT OF FACTS: 

 

The applicant is a former member of the Air Force who served 
from 5 December 2006 through 4 December 2012. Her DD Form 4/1, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document Armed Forces of the United 
States, reflects East Tawas, MI as her home of record at the 
time of her enlistment. 

 

________________________________________________________________ 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 

 

AFPC/DPSIPE recommends denial. The applicant’s records reflect 
East Tawas, MI as the HOR at which she resided prior to entering 
the Air Force. The DD Form 4 is the source document for the 
home of record. That same address is listed as the member’s 
home of record on the DD Form 4 at the time of her enlistment. 
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 home of record 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 30 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, she has 
provided no evidence which would lead us to believe that her 
home of record or the place of entry currently reflected in her 
records were incorrectly recorded at the time she 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.
