Employee was detailed to position in Fort Lauderdale office from May 31 to September 1, 1977. There was a verbal understanding with agency officials that travel expenses would not be at Government expense and no written travel order was issued. Employee seeks reimburse- ment of per diem, travel expenses, and restoration of annual leave. Since claimant requested the detail and decided that the detail, and possibly a subsequent permanent transfer, was in his interest as well as in the interest of the Government, and in absence of a written travel order authorizing or approving reimbursement, the United States is not obligated to pay employee's travel expenses.
