RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-02279

					COUNSEL:  NONE

		HEARING DESIRED:  NO 



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His records be corrected to reflect his home of record (HOR) as 
Othello, WA.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His HOR was stated as his college address of South Pasadena, CA 
when he was commissioned into the Air Force.  This was the 
location where he lived but not his HOR where he intended to 
reside upon leaving the military.

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


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

On 5 Oct 07, the applicant recorded his HOR on AF Form 24, 
Application for Appointment as Reserve of the AF or USAF without 
Component, as South Pasadena, California.

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/DPANF recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or an injustice.  The Joint Federal travel Regulation 
(JFTR) defines the HOR as the place recorded as the home of the 
individual when reinstated, reappointed, or reenlisted remains 
the same as that recorded when commissioned, appointed, 
enlisted, inducted, or ordered into a tour of active duty.  The 
HOR can only be changed if there is a break in service of at 
least one full day.  The HOR is listed by the individual upon 
entering military service, not a location where the individual 
is later assigned or a location selected for convenience.  A 
correction to the HOR must be fully justified.  The domicile or 
legal residence may change, but the HOR will not.  The applicant 
recorded HOR as South Pasadena, CA on his commissioning 
documents; therefore, his HOR was listed as such on his extended 
active duty order.  The justification provided does not warrant 
the HOR to be changed to Othello, WA.  The applicant did not 
have a break in service of more than one day; therefore a change 
to his HOR is not authorized.  In accordance with the JFTR the 
HOR must be the member’s actual home upon entering the service, 
and not a different place selected for the member’s convenience.

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPANF 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 28 Jul 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 timely filed.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an 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 
(OPR) 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.
