               break in service of less than I month
               by term appointment with HEW, may be
               reimbursed expenses of selling house at
               NASA duty station since term appointment
               with HEW was nontdmporary appointment
               and eligibility for relocation expenses
               arose under that section incident to RIF
               by NASA and employment by HEW.

     This action concerns the claim of Alfred H. Gaehler, an
employee of the Department of the Army, for reimbursement of real
estate expenses under the circumstances described below,

     Hr. Gaehler was employed at th Ames Research Center, Moffett
Field, California, by the National Aeronautical and Space Administra-
tion (NASA), when he was the subject of a reduction-in-force (RIF)
action, which ter-minated his position with NASA effective September 30,
1970. At the time, Mr. Gaehler was residing in Cupertino, Califorriia.
Effective October 26, 1970, Mr. Gaehler received a term appointient
to a manpower shortage position with the Department of Health,
Education, and Welfare (HEW), in Sacramento, California. Pursuant
to his appointment to the manpower shortage position, he was issued
Travel Order No. PHS 374897, dated October 23, 1970, authorizing
travel and transportation expenses for himself and his wife and
also authorization for transportation of household effects from
Cupertino to Sacramento. Subsequently, he transferred from HEW
to his current position with the Army, effective September 19,
1971. Pursuant to the latter transfer, Mr. Gaehler was reimbursed
for proper expenses, including lease-breaking expense incurred by
him at his former duty station in Sacramento.

     Mr. Gaehler now claims reimbursement for the expenses incurred
in the sale of his residence at Cupertino on January 21, 1971. He
first submitted his claim to the Army incident to his transfer from
HEW to Army, and it was denied on the basis that the residence sold
was not his residence when he was first officially notified of his
transfer to the Army, as required by Office of Management and Budget
