RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-00571
COUNSEL: NONE
XXXXXXXXXX HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Home of Record (HOR) be changed from Knoxville, TN to New
Orleans, LA.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
In August 2005, he had to relocate from his home in New Orleans
to Knoxville for approximately one year due to Hurricane
Katrina. Prior to leaving for Basic Military Training (BMT) he
was able to move back to New Orleans. His immediate family
lives in New Orleans and he has no family connections in
Knoxville.
The applicants complete submission is at Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant contracted his initial enlistment in the Regular
Air Force on 14 December 2006. His DD Form 4, Enlistment -
Reenlistment Document, reflects Knoxville, TN as his HOR.
THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIPE recommends denial. After a thorough review of the
applicant's military personnel record and other supporting
documentation, there appears to be no error or injustice
regarding the applicants HOR. Joint Federal Travel Regulation
Volume I, Appendix A1, Part 1, states in part that a HOR is the
place recorded as the individuals home when commissioned,
appointed, enlisted, inducted, or ordered into a tour of active
duty. Any correction must be fully justified and the home, as
corrected, must be the members actual home upon entering the
Service, and not a different place selected for the member's
convenience. The applicant's DD Form 4, reflects Knoxville, TN
as his HOR.
The complete DPSIPE evaluation, with attachment is at Exhibit C.
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF THE AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
On 8 May 2014, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded
to the applicant for review and comment within 30 days. As of
this date, no response has been received by this office (Exhibit
D).
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. We took notice
of the applicant's complete submission in judging the merits of
the case; however, we agree with the opinion and recommendation
of the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt the
rationale expressed as the basis for our conclusion the
applicant has not been the victim of an error or
injustice. Should the applicant provide official documentation
to substantiate that he was displaced due to Hurricane Katrina,
we would be willing to reconsider his request. In view of the
above and 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.
