RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2013-02827
		COUNSEL:  NONE
		HEARING DESIRED:  NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Home of Record (HOR) reflects Navarre, FL, rather than O’Fallon, IL.
________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

When he reentered the military in August 2008, the HOR from his enlisted time (1983 through 1992) was erroneously placed as his 
current HOR.  His HOR should reflect Navarre, FL.

The applicant provides no additional documentation in support of his appeal.

The applicant's complete submission is at Exhibit A.
________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving on active duty in the grade of captain.

The applicant’s AF Form 24, Application for Appointment as Reserve of the Air Force or USAF without Component, reflect the applicant’s HOR as O’Fallon, IL.
________________________________________________________________

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPANF2 recommends denial.  DPANF2 states on 12 January 1983, the applicant recorded his HOR as Willoughby OH, when he 
enlisted in the Air Force under the delayed entry/enlisted 
program.  The applicant’s HOR remained the same during his 
active duty service time (22 June 1983 through 30 September 
1992).  His HOR remained the same when he transferred to the 
Reserves to serve his remaining military service obligation and 
until he separated on 30 September 1995.  On 30 September 1995 
to 30 June 2008, the applicant was in a non-military status 
(civilian).   When he commissioned on 1 July 2008, he recorded 
his HOR as O’Fallon, IL.  There are no source documents in the 
applicant’s personnel record that reflect his HOR as Navarre, 
FL.

The Joint Federal Travel Regulations (JFTR) Volume I, Appendix 
A, reads – the HOR is the place recorded as the home of the 
individual when commissioned, appointed, enlisted, inducted, or 
ordered into a 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 tour of 
active duty unless there is a break in service of more than one 
full day.  The applicant did have a break of service of more 
than one full day between his discharge date and commissioning 
date, which authorizes the applicant to select a different HOR.  
There is no justification to warrant change of HOR to reflect 
Navarre, FL.

The complete DPANF2 evaluation, with attachments, is at Exhibit 
B.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

On 13 December 2013, a copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant for review and response 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.  The 
applicant’s contentions are duly noted; 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.  Therefore, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this application.
________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not demonstrate the existence of an 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.
