Correct. I turned them in, and we never discussed them. AF OPRs are narrative reports that include summaries of what you did and how well you did it. They are normally full of hyperbole (see Kelly Flinn) as to how great you are. So other than matching up supervisor names, units you were assigned to (job history), and dates there's not much to fact check, IMO. As for your application, they'll of course have some copies on hand and ask you point blank if everything on it is correct. I think I said something about some speeding tickets I got that I put on there, but had to approximate the dates and details because two of them occurred when I was so young. They had me make a statement to that effect on their copy and that was that.
