RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-03986
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her Home of Record (HOR) be changed from California to Ohio on
her DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active
Duty.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
She was an out-of-state student in college in California and
was recruited immediately after graduation. At the time, the
recruiter told her to put down any address of friends she had in
California. The recruiter put her on a one-month delay, so on
14 Jul 99, she went to basic training.
She moved back to Ohio in 2004 and applied for State of Ohio
veterans benefits but discovered the HOR error, so she is
trying to fix it in order to access those benefits. She
provides copies of her academic transcript from Alliant
International University in California showing her HOR as
Middletown, OH and DD Form 214 showing nearest relatives
address as Middletown, OH.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 14 Jul 99, the applicant entered the Regular Air Force.
According to DD Form 4, Enlistment/Reenlistment Document Armed
Forces of the United States, dated 23 Jun 99, her HOR is listed
as 36707 XXXXXXX Dr., XXXXXX, Fremont, CA XXXXXXXXXX.
According to DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge
from Active Duty, associated with her 13 Jul 03 release from
active duty, her HOR at time of entry is listed as 36707 San
Pedro Dr., Apt 120, Fremont, CA 94536.
On 13 Jul 03, the applicant was released from active duty with
an honorable character of service after completion of her
required active service and transferred to the Air Force
Reserves. She was credited with 4 years of active service.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIPE recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of
an error or an injustice. The DD Form 4, Enlistment/Reenlistment
Document Armed Forces of the United States, is the source
document for HOR and Place of Entry (POE). The Joint Federal
Travel Regulation (JFTR), volume 1, Appendix A1, 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. AFPC Enlisted Accessions Branch was able to
confirm that the member initialed the DD Form 4 listing 36707
XXXXXXXXXDrive, Apt 120, Fremont, CA XXXXX as her HOR.
The complete DPSIPE evaluation is at Exhibit C.
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
The applicant submitted a response stating when she was in
contact with her recruiter she was a full-time out-of-state
student at Alliant International University in California. She
was only one month away from graduating with a BA in Sociology,
so the recruiter delayed her entry by one month. She submitted
proof that she was not living at the address listed on her DD
Form 214; that she was an out-of-state student as listed on her
official transcript. Had she been living at the California
address, it would have been listed on her transcript. However,
she had never rented or lived at the California address listed
as her HOR. As someone who was born and raised in Ohio and only
went to school in California, she would like the address changed
to 2100 XXXXXXXXXXXXX, XXXX, Middletown, OH 45044.
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 applicants complete submission, to include her
rebuttal of the Air Force advisory, 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. While we acknowledge
the applicants request to change her home of record, we do not
believe she has demonstrated evidence of an injustice, as
compared to others in her similar situation. 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.
