     Dear 1lr. Restivo

          This is in response to your letter of Otober 26, 197  reference

          The record presented shows that Hr. Ebleu was aurhorized by travel
     orer number AA-39, issued July 3, 1973, to move his household goods
     fromi Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia, to Eglin Air Force Base, Florida, inci-
     dent to his appointment in the Federal service.   Your office has re-
     imbursed the expenses of the move with the ex-eption of the costs
     Mr. Eblen incurred in connection with teporary storage, reimburse-
     ment of which is permitted when transportation of household goods is
     authorized, Reimbursement of those coats was not allowed because in
     your opinion the documentation provided by Hr. Eblen did not comply
     vdtih paragraph C 7051, section 2b of Volume II, Joint Travel Regula-
     tions (JTR)(December 1, 1971).  This paragraph provides in part thit:

               reimbursement is subject to the table of allor
