                   				HEARING DESIRED:  NO

________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT: 

Her Home of Record (HOR) be changed from XXXXXXXXXX to XXXXXXXXXX.  
________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

When she enlisted, she was temporarily living in Monterey, California.  She is from a military background, so she has roots all over the country.  During 
her Military Entrance Processing Station (MEPS) in-processing, it was not made clear to her what 
address her [HOR] was supposed to be.  She claims her home state as Florida because that is where the majority of her family 
resides.  This is where she would like to return to at the end of her military service.  

The applicant does not provide any additional documentation in support of her appeal.  

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

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in the grade of staff sergeant (E-5).  

The remaining relevant facts, extracted from the applicant’s military service records, are contained in the evaluation by the 
Air Force office of primary responsibility at Exhibit C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIPS recommends denial.  DPSIPS states 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 I, Appendix 
A1, part 1, indicates 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.  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.  

The applicant initialed her DD Form 4/1, dated 9 July 2007, 
listing 1503 Custer Avenue, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80903 as 
her HOR and later changed it to reflect 570 Ingram Court Marina, 
Monterey, California, based upon the information from her DD 
Form 1966, Record of Military Processing – Armed Forces of the 
United States.  After a thorough review of her military 
personnel record and other supporting documentation, there is no 
error or injustice in regard to the applicant’s HOR.  

The complete DPSIPS 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 13 January 2014, for review and comment within 30 
days (Exhibit D).  As of this date, this office has received no 
response.

________________________________________________________________

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 an 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 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 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.
