RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-01593
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His Place of Enlistment (POE) and Home of Record (HOR) be
corrected to reflect Desoto, Texas 75115.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He moved to Dallas, Texas in September of 1987 to attend college
which started in January 1988. He was assigned a new recruiter
in Dallas and entered the Air Force on 18 May 88 from his
Dallas, Texas address: 514 E. Beltline Rd, Apartment A-4,
Dallas, Texas 75115.
The reason for this request is to secure the use of the
Hazelwood Act; in which his records must show he was a Texas
residence upon entry in the Air Force so he can receive college
tuition assistance.
In support of his request, the applicant submits a copy of his
DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active
Duty, which shows his separation mailing address as San Antonio,
Texas and an Official College Transcript which shows he was
attending college in Dallas, Texas until his date of entry into
the Air Force.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant initially entered the Regular Air Force on 18 May
88.
The applicants DD Form 4/1, Enlistment / Reenlistment Document,
reflect POE as Nashville MEPS and HOR as Franklin TN.
On 1 Apr 90, the applicant was furnished an Honorable discharge,
and was credited with 1 year, 10 months, and 14 days of active
service.
The applicants DD Form 214 and AF Form 100, Request and
Authorization for Separation, both reflect his POE as Nashville,
TN and HOR as Franklin TN 37064.
The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are
contained in the memorandum prepared by the Air Force office of
primary responsibility (OPR), which is attached at Exhibit C.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIPE recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of
an error or an injustice.
The DD Form 4 is the source document for Home of Record (HOR)
and Place of Entry (POE). The Joint Federal Travel Regulation
(JFTR), volume 1, Appendix Al , part 1, states, "The place
recorded as the home of the individual when reinstated,
reappointed, or reenlisted remains the same as that recorded
when commission, appointed, enlisted or inducted, or ordered
into the tour of active duty, unless there is a break in service
of more than one full day. Only if a break in service exceeds
one full day, may the member change the HOR." The HOR is the
location identified by the individual upon entering the service,
not a location where the individual is later assigned or a
location selected for convenience; a correction must be fully
justified. Domicile or legal residence may change, but the HOR
will not.
They could not confirm that member's HOR and POE were 514E.
Beltline Rd Apt A4 Desoto TX 75115 at the time of initial entry
into the United States Air Force.
A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSIPE evaluation is at Exhibit C.

(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.

merits of the case; however, we agree with the opinion and
recommendation of the Air Force office of primary responsibility
(OPR) and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion
