         Matter of:      Carlton C. Brock--Claim for Military Pay and
                         Allowances

          File:          B-248274

          Date:         June 10, 1992

          DIGEST

          An officer candidate in the Baccalaureate Degree Completion
          Program of the Naval Reserve was disenrolled. Under his
          service agreement he resumed his active duty status as an
          enlisted member while he awaited reassignment to recruit
          training. Although he spent several months performing no
          military duties before he received his orders, he is
          entitled to pay and allowances from the date of his
          disenrollment until his entry into recruit training.

          DECISION

          We have been asked to settle the claim of Carlton C. Brock,
          former member of the Naval Reserve, for pay and allowances
          for the period from August 2, 1990, through December 25,
          1990. For the reasons presented below, his claim may be
          allowed.

          In December 1989, Mr. Brock enlisted in the Naval Reserve
          and entered the Baccalaureate Degree Completion Program
          (BDCP) . While an officer candidate under the BDCP, he
          received the pay and allowances of an enlisted member on
          active duty. On July 27, 1990, he was disenrolled from the
          BDCP because his academic performance did not meet BDCP
          requirements. He was told, consistent with the program's
          authorizing document, that he would be ordered to complete
          his active duty obligation as an enlisted member, and that
          he should expect specific orders within 60 days assigning
          him to recruit training. Through administrative error, no
          orders were issued until December 17, 1990. Mr. Brock
          reported for training on December 26, 1990. He now claims
          pay and allowances amounting to $6,200 for the period
          between his disenrollment and the beginning of recruit
          training.

          The BDCP is an affirmative action initiative designed to
          provide financial incentive primarily to minority college
          students to complete baccalaureate degree requirements and
