OF: Hughie L. Ratliff - Transfers -Fimbursement
    for Selling Residence /,i  fded To -an  6f4/S4

 Residence selling expenses are reimbursable
 to an FBI employee since his old official
 station was Alexandria, Virginia, where he

and for reassignment to an FBI field office after the training. The

training at Quantico he was transferred from Washington Headquarters
