          Reference is made to your letter of April 14, 1978, with enclosuras,
      seeking our views as to the proper meaning of paragraphs B-36 and
      6-37 of Army Regulation 145-2. change 4, March 1973, pertaining to
      the compensation of Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JR0TC)
      instructors who are retired members of one of the military services.

          You say that you are presently employed as an instructor in the
      Junior Reserve Officers Training Program in the Dallas Independent
      School District. You indicate that you do not fully understand what is
      being said or meant by this regulation and what effect it has on
      income tax liability when deductions from instructors' wages are
      involved.

          An official decision is not being rendered at your request; however,
      the following conmnents and references may be of assistance to you.

          Paragralh 6-36, entitled Monetary Allowances a, relates to the
      method by which such compensation shall be computed for the purpose
      of determining the amount that the Department of the Army shall
      reimburse a school for salary expenses incurred by it for JROTC
      program purposes as required by 10 U. S. C. 2031(d)(1). Paragraph 6-37
      contains instructions relating to income tax treatment of tha amounts
      received by JROTC instructors and administrators who are retired
      members.

          In decision 55 Comp. Gen. 44 (1975), copy enclosed, we considered,
 F    in part, the subject of your inquiry. We held therein that the addi-
      tional amount to which a retired member employed as a JRCTC
      instructor becomes entitled for purposes of 10 U.S.C. 2031(d)(1), is the
      difference between his military retired or retainer pay and the active
      duty pay and allowances to which he would be entitled if called or
      ordered to active duty at that location. However, such additional
      amount is not deemed to be either retired pay or active duty pay.
