XXXXXXXXXXXXXX	COUNSEL:  NONE

	HEARING:  NO

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His Home of Record (HOR) be changed from Dayton, Ohio to San Antonio, Texas.

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

He established San Antonio, Texas as his HOR.  The applicant’s complete submission is at Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving on duty in the grade of first lieutenant.  

According to AF Form 24, Application for Appointment as Reserve of the Air Force or USAF without Component, dated 7 Apr 17, AF IMT 766, Extended Active Duty Order, and AFRS IMT 1317, Commissioning Information – For All Health Professions Applicants, dated 7 Apr 17, all reflect Dayton, OH as the applicant’s HOR.  For more information, see the excerpt of the applicant’s record at Exhibit B and the advisory at Exhibit C.

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DP2NA recommends denying the application, indicating the Joint Federal Travel Regulation (JFTR), Volume 1, Appendix A, states the HOR is the place recorded as the individuals home when commissioned, appointed, enlisted, indicted, or ordered into a tour of active duty.  Only if a break in service exceeds one full day may the member change the HOR.  In addition, any correction to the HOR must be fully justified and not a different place selected for the members convenience.  The complete advisory is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT’S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

The Board sent a copy of the Air Force evaluation to the applicant on 13 Sep 18 for comment (Exhibit D), but has received no response.

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  The application was timely filed.

2.  The applicant exhausted all available avenues of non-judicial relief before applying to the Board.

3.  After thoroughly reviewing all Exhibits, it is the Board’s opinion that the applicant is not the victim of an error and injustice.  The Board concurs with the rationale and recommendation of AFPC/DP2NA and finds that a preponderance of the evidence does not substantiate the applicant’s contentions.  Therefore, the Board recommends against correcting the applicant’s records.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT:

The applicant be informed the evidence did not demonstrate material error or injustice, and the application will only be reconsidered upon receipt of relevant evidence not already considered by the Board.
