                             THE  COMPTROLLER GENERAL
DECISION                     OF   THE UNITED STATES
                             WAS   H IN GTON. D.      . 20549



FILE:                               D153784 DATE: JUN 2 6 1975

MATTER O:
                Retired grade of rear admirals
                retired under 10 U.S.C. 6394
DIGEST:
            Several rear admirals, both upper and lower
            half, are to be mandatorily retired under
            provisions of 10 U.S.C. 6394 on July 1, 1975,
            and as a result of retirement of rear admirals
            (upper half) on that date, some retiring rear
            admirals (lower half) would be entitled to
            basic pay as a rear admiral (upper half) in
            accordance with 37 U.S.C. 202, if considered
            to be serving on active list subsequent to the
            retirement of the rear admirals (upper half).
            These rear admirals are not entitled to com-
            pute retired pay on basis of rear admiral
            (upper half) since they also are to be manda-
            torily retired on July 1, 1975, and as a
            result will not be serving in that grade on
            the active list on that date.

   - This action is in response to letter dated June 13, 1975,
from the Secretary of the Navy, requesting an advance decision
concerning the proper rate of pay to be used in computing the
retired pay of certain rear admirals (lower half) who are to be
mandatorily retired effective July 1, 1975.

     The Secretary states that a board which convened in Novem-
ber 1974 under the provisions of 10 U.S.C. 6394, recommended
that several officers in the grade of rear admiral be retired
and that this recommendation was approved on December 4, 1974.
The Secretary also indicates that the date of mandatory retire-
ment for these officers is July 1, 1975, in accordance with
10 U.S.C. 6394(f). It is noted that four of these officers are
rear admirals (lower half) who, if deemed to be on the active
list on July 1, 1975, would be entitled to be advanced to the
pay grade of rear admiral (upper half), before actual retirement
as a result of the other retirement actions effective on that
date.

     It is indicated that prior administrative procedur for
retirements under 10 U.S.C. 6394 has been accomplished in a

                                                        DECISION
                                               S     p. Gen..........
