RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF: 			DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2015-02907

 						COUNSEL:  NONE

						HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

The mailing address on his DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty, be amended to reflect his correct address.  

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

The mailing address on his DD Form 214 is incorrect and reflects his wife’s previous address where she lived with her parents.  He is not sure why the address is incorrect as he has lived at the correct address provided almost his entire life.

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

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant entered the Regular Air Force on 2 September 2014 and was discharged on 1 July 2015.  He served 10 months of active duty service.  

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 B.    

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSOR recommends denial.  The address recorded on the DD Form 214 was auto populated from information provided by the applicant prior to the date of discharge.  Per AFI 36-3202, Separation Documents, Table 4, Rule 50, Block 19a, Mailing Address After Separation, the sole purpose of the address is for the initial physical delivery of the DD Form 214.  With the applicant already in receipt of his DD Form 214, the information is of no future use, data is administrative, and has no impact on veteran benefits or entitlements.  

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSOR evaluation is at Exhibit B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 11 January 2016 for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit C).  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 or 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.
