		INDEX NUMBER:  100.00

		COUNSEL:  NONE

		HEARING DESIRED:  NO

MANDATORY CASE COMPLETION DATE:  27 JULY 2007

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His extended active duty (EAD) orders, Special Order A-1965, be amended to reflect that he was ordered to active duty from Flagstaff, Arizona vice Vacaville, California.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He was commissioned at and traveled from Flagstaff, Arizona to his first duty location.  However, Vacaville, CA is his correct home of record.

When he separates from the Air Force, he would like to have one last move to the state he plans on someday living.

In support of his appeal, applicant provides a copy of Special Order A-1965, and paperwork, which verifies his residency in Flagstaff when ordered to active duty.

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

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is presently serving on active duty in the grade of captain and has a date of separation of 15 Apr 06.  According to documents he provided, he was commissioned a second lieutenant in the Air Force Reserve at his Air Force Reserve Officer Training Corp (AFROTC) Detachment located in Flagstaff, Arizona.  According to the military personnel data system (MilPDS), he was commissioned on 10 May 96.  He entered active duty on 10 Jul 96.  The actual location he departed from to enter active duty cannot be determined from the available evidence of record.

_________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPPAO recommends denial of the applicant’s request.  They note he has not provided proof that his departure point to enter active duty was other than Vacaville, CA.

The complete 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 10 Mar 06 for review and comment within 30 days.  To date, a response has not been received.

_________________________________________________________________

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 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 and adopt its rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has not been the victim of an error or injustice.  It appears from a travel voucher located in his master personnel records, that he indicated his place of departure as Vacaville, CA.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no compelling basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this application.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented did not demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; that the application was denied without a personal appearance; and that the application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this application.
