MATTER OF: Department of Defense Military Pay and
               Allowance Committee Action No. 515 - Payment
               to JROTC Instructors
DIGEST:   1.  Where retired members are employed as adminis-
              trators or instructors in the JROTC program
              under 10 U.S.C. 203(d) at DOD operated schools
              on U.S. military bases in foreign countries
              and occupy Government owned or controlled
              quarters which are determined by such installa-
              tion comnander to be adequate for the member
              and dependents for his grade or rating if
              called to active duty at that location,.such
              retired member may not be credited with BAQ
              in the computation of the additional amount
              payable to him under 10 U.S.C. 2031(d)(1).

          2.  While the additional amount to which a
              retired member employed as a JROTC instructor
              becomes entitled under 10 U.SC. 2031(d)(1)
              is the difference between retired or retainer
              pay and active duty pay and allowances to
              which entitled if called or ordered to active
              duty, such amount is neither retired pay nor
              .active duty pay, rather, is compensation paid
              to such member in a civilian capacity. As
              such, recovery by the United States of any
              erroneous payments of that additional amount
              may only be waived, if at all, under 5 U.S.C. 5584.

      This action is in response to a request for advance decision
 from the Assistant Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) concerning
 the crediting of basic allowance for quarters (BAQ) to Junior
 Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC) instructors in the cir-
 cumstances discussed in Department of Defense Military Pay and
 Allowance Committee Action No. 515, which was enclosed with the
 request.

      The questions presented in the Committee Action ares

      1. In establishing the rate payable to Junior
      Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC) instructors
      in overseas areas, may credit for basic allowance
