RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01255
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His DD Form 215, Correction to DD Form 214, Certificate of Release
or Discharge from Active Duty, Block 4, Mailing Address, be
corrected to reflect OH vice OK.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
There is a typographical error in the mailing address.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 11 Aug 81, the applicant entered the Regular Air Force and
retired 1 Feb 02.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSOR recommends denial. The need for correction of the DD
Form 215 is without merit as the address has already served its
purpose, is no longer used and could impede future veteran
services.
The address listed in block 4 of the DD Form 215 is for the
purpose of mailing the document to the individual. With the
member already in possession of the document, the need for an
address (or correction) is void as the address has already served
its purpose. Although administratively incorrect, the error does
not impact or change the DD Form 214. Only those shaded items
(blocks 1, 3, 5, 6, or 8) on the DD Form 215 warrant corrections.
Unless other corrections are warranted/directed, the requested
correction would not be accomplished as the address is no longer
used and does not provide entitlements or benefits. In contrast,
to correct the document has greater negative impact to the
individual as it would generate the mailing of documents
referencing the old address to several supporting veteran service
agencies who must manually marry changes to existing DD Forms 214.
The complete DPSOR evaluation is at Exhibit C.
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant
on 9 Aug 14 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D). 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 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 an error or injustice. We took
notice of the applicants 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 its rationale as the basis for our conclusion the
applicant has not been the victim of an error of injustice.
Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no
basis to recommend granting the requested relief.
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly
discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.
