DECISIDN                  .  OF  THE UNITUO DTATEU

MATTER OF: Readjustment Pay Computation


DIGEST:


An Air Force Reserve officer may not be
paid readjustment pay computed on the
oasis of the more favorable formula pro-
vided in 10 U.S.C. 687 (1976) on the
basis that he was separated for homo-
sexual tendecies! and not substandard
duty performance (which requirey compu-
tation on a less favorable formula),when
the dir Force records show the authority
for his separation as a regulatfon pro-
viding for ueparation for substandard
duty performance.  Separation from the
Air Force and the reaaons therefor are
within the jurisdiction of the Air
Force.. If t..a officer believen the
authority given for h,'.s separation is
e.,roneous, he may seek to have his record
corrected by the Air Force Lndrer 10 U.S.C.
1552 (1976).


     This decision is in reaponse to a request from Captain 0. C.
Seever, USAF,.Accounting and Finance Officer, Little Rock Air
Force Base, Arkansas, concerning the propriety of making payment
on a:voucher in the amouhtof $4,969.92 to a former Air Force
Reserve officer, for additional readjustment pay. The request
has been assigned submission No. DO-AF-1296 by the Department of
Defense Military Pay and Allowance Committee,

     Incident to his dascharge from the Air Force the member was
paid readjustment pay computed by multiplying his years of service
by one-half month's basic pay. He claims additional readjustment
pay saying that he is entitled to such pay computed based on
two months' basic pay time his years of service.

     Readjustment pay is authorized by 10 U.S.C. 687 (1976),
which provides in pertinent part:

          (a)  Except for members covered by subsection (b),
     a member of a reserve component * * * who is released
     from active duty involuntarily * *  and who has com-
