Tuck, USA DIGEST: An Army officer wtis ordered to Fort Benning, Georgia, to participate ip two training courses, The orders characterized the assignment as temporary duty although it was scheduled to last '3 weeks. While under the regulations and Comptroller General decisions assignments to training at one location for 20 weeks or more is usually a permanent change of station, in this case 6 weeks of the training was performed at two other installations and the member was treated in other respects as beiig on temi- porary duty, Thus, the characterization of the assignment In the orders as temporary duty for travel allowance purposes will not be nuestioned, The question in this case is whether an Army member ordered to Fort Benning, Georgia, to attend two training courses which, combined, were scheduled to take 23 weeks may be considered to have been on temporary duty and entitled to per diem, or must be considered to have been transferred there on permanent change of station. Al- though a transfer for training in excess of 20 weeks at the same station is usually considered a permanent change of station, in this case it may be considered temporary duty since the orders so provided, the training took place at three different locations, and the member was treated as being on temporary duty. The question wis presented by the Finance and Accounting Officer, Headquarters United States Army Avi- ation Center and Fort Rucker, Fort Rucker, Alabama, and involves payment on a travel voucher for Second Lieuten- ant Franklin S. Tuck, USA. The matter was assigned Con- trol Number 81-19 and forwarded to us by the Per Diem, Travel and Transportation Allowance Committee.
