RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
IN THE CASE OF:
BOARD DATE: 9 NOVEMBER 2006
DOCKET NUMBER: AR20060004724
I certify that hereinafter is recorded the true and complete record
of the proceedings of the Army Board for Correction of Military Records in
the case of the above-named individual.
| |Mr. Carl W. S. Chun | |Director |
| |Ms. Rene’ R. Parker | |Analyst |
The following members, a quorum, were present:
| |Ms. Margaret Patterson | |Chairperson |
| |Mr. Robert Rogers | |Member |
| |Ms. Ernestine Fields | |Member |
The Board considered the following evidence:
Exhibit A - Application for correction of military records.
Exhibit B - Military Personnel Records (including advisory opinion,
if any).
THE APPLICANT'S REQUEST, STATEMENT, AND EVIDENCE:
1. The applicant request, in effect, that his home of record be changed on
his DD Form 214 (Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty) to
Whitewater, Wisconsin.
2. The applicant states that item 7b, on his DD Form 214, lists his home
of record as Rochester, Minnesota, and that address shown was a temporary
address while attending school. Therefore, he requests that his address be
listed as Whitewater, Wisconsin.
3. The applicant provides copies of his Leave and Earning Statements.
CONSIDERATION OF EVIDENCE:
1. The applicant's records show he enlisted in the United States Army
Reserve for a period of 8 years on 16 January 1998. His home of record on
his enlistment/reenlistment document was listed as Edgerton, Wisconsin.
2. The applicant provided three Leave and Earning Statements which show
Wisconsin for state income taxes.
3. The applicant’s DD Form 214, from 8 June 1999 to 6 August 1999, lists
his home of record in item 7b as Edgerton, Wisconsin.
4. The applicant’s DD Form 214, from 5 October 2004 to 21 November 2004,
lists his home of record in item 7b as Rochester, Minnesota.
5. Army Regulation 601-280 (Army Retention Program) states that the Home
of Record is the place recorded as the home of the Soldier when entered
into the current tour of active duty. It is not necessarily the legal
domicile as defined for income tax purposes. Effective 1 January 1987,
Home of Record is the place recorded as the home of the individual when
commissioned, appointed, enlisted, inducted, or ordered into the relevant
tour of active duty. The place recorded as the home of the individual when
reinstated, reappointed, or reenlisted remains the same as that recorded
when commissioned, appointed, enlisted, or inducted or ordered into the
relevant 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, can
the home of record be changed by the member.
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS:
The evidence of record confirms that the applicant’s home of record at the
time of his enlistment was Edgerton, Wisconsin. Therefore, the applicant’s
DD Form 214 should be corrected to show this address.
BOARD VOTE:
________ ________ ________ GRANT FULL RELIEF
___MP __ ___RR __ ___EF __ GRANT PARTIAL RELIEF
________ ________ ________ GRANT FORMAL HEARING
________ ________ ________ DENY APPLICATION
BOARD DETERMINATION/RECOMMENDATION:
1. The Board determined that the evidence presented was sufficient to
warrant a recommendation for partial relief. As a result, the Board
recommends that all Department of the Army records of the individual
concerned be corrected by showing his home of record as Edgerton,
Wisconsin.
2. The Board further determined that the evidence presented is
insufficient to warrant a portion of the requested relief. As a result,
the Board recommends denial of so much of the application that pertains to
changing his home of record to Whitewater, Wisconsin.
