C. 2054B PV IT E FILE: B-184608 DATE: SEP 1976 MATTER OF: Warren E. Street - Claim for Reimbursement for Annual Leav4 . DIGEST: Where former employee of Army contends he was improperly charged annual leave incident to PCS travel and claims reim- bursement for it, and Army maintains he was never charged the leave in question, the claim must be disallowed under the long standing rule that when there is a dispute between the claimant and the ad- ministrative agency as to the facts, those reported by the administrative agency will be accepted by this Office in the absence of evidence sufficient to overcome the presumption of the cor- rectness thereof.
