This action is in response to a letter dated September 14, 1976, from Staff Sergeant-John A. Jansen, USA, Retired, request- ing reconsideration of that part'of asettlement dated August 16, 1976, by the Claims Division of this office, whiich disallowed his claim for reimbursement for the cs'ict of his wife's transoceanic travel by foreign air carrier from Germany to the United States incident to his retirement from the United States Army.

These retirement orders (which authorized travel to home of selection and completion of travel within one year) were amended by orders dated October 18, 1973, authorizing concurrent travel for the member's wife incident to his retirement. These orders also stated that US Army members and dependents may travel at personal expense by US Flag Air Carrier over any route they choose and claim reimbursement. The record shows that the member's wife traveled from Ludwigsburg, Germany, to Las Cruces, New Mexico (home of selec- tion), by Lufthansa, a foreign air carrier, and privately owned automobile between December 19 to 26, 1974.
