                                                           9? 7367
MATTER OF:
                Dependent transportation upon retirement -
                Colonel Harry J. Taylor, USA, Retired
DIGEST:
                1. Military member traveled with his depen-
                    dents from his last permanent duty station
                    in Hawaii to a separation facility at
                    Oakland, California, at Government expense.
                    Upon retirement at Oakland member and depen-
                    dents traveled back to Hawaii, to the same
                    residence previously occupied. This travel
                    also was at Government expense. There is no
                    entitlement to dependent transportation from
                    Hawaii to Oakland, as member's assignment to
                    the separation facility is not regarded as a
                    permanent change of station but is temporary
                    in nature, and there is no authority for de-
                    pendent transportation to a separation facility.

                2. Military member traveled with his dependents
                    from his last permanent duty station in Hawaii
                    to a separation facility at Oakland, California,
                    at Government expense. Upon retirement at.
                    Oaklaud member and dependents traveled back to
                    Hawaii, to the same residence previously occupied.
                    This travel also was at Government expense.
                    There is no entitlement to dependent travel
                    from Oakland to Hawaii, as it was not required
                    incident to member's selection of a home on
                    retirement, since it was the same location where
                    the member and his dependents resided prior to
                    retirement.

     This is a request for reconsideration of the action taken by
our Transportation and Claims Division on July 1, 1974, in determining
that Colonel Harry J. Taylor, Jr., United States Army, Retired, is
indebted to the United States in the amount of $844.97 incident to
his retirement from the Army, for the transportation of his depen-
dents from Honolulu, Hawaii, to Oakland Army Base, Oakland, California,
and return, at Government expense.

     By Special Orders No. 162, dated August 21, 1972, Colonel Taylor
was reassigned from his permanent duty station at Honolulu, Hawaii, to
the U.S. Army Transfer Station, Oakland Army Base, Oakland, California,
