They receive BAQ and allowances for housing and cost of living even though adequate quarters are available.' We believe you could substantially reduce these payments by making better use of available quartets. Members of the uniformed services are entitled to BAQ unless public quarters are furnished. Furthermore, in Hawaii, members living off base are.authorized allowances for housing and cost of living to defray excess costs. Deptrtment of Defense Instruction 4165.47 requires members in pay grades E-l through 0-3 to live on base if adequate quarters are available. Further, Chief of Naval Operations Instruction 110122C requires full use of bachelor quarters which meet adequacy standards,- Exceptions are allowed on-an-'individual basis if significant hardship or expen'se result from involuntary assignments, In our initial work we examined the pay records of Pat-rol.Squadrond.l. We.found 66 single members of the squadron were receiving BAQ -- an unusually high-number compared with squadrons based at other air stations. Consequently, we examined all-pay records closed on June 30, 1974 for Barbers PEUnt base and tenant personnel to determine whether this situation was peculiar to that squadron. We determined that 542 members without dependents received BAQ, housing and cost of living allowances totaling $552,700 during the'6-months ended June 30 becausu they E/3cs~c /)1~~oa~~ce t~r 4Lutr t.r sen(tbcaAi &C'r b~t n c~hi Si I S UITED OFFICE o / 55
