               February 27, 1996

               Dear Sirs:

               Andrews Van Lines, Inc., has appealed our Claims Group settlement Z-2729037(90),
               dated May 24, 1995, concerning the loss/damage to the household goods shipment
               of Gareth K. Snyder under GBL #TP-491,639. The Air Force claim number is
               OT/D/VKAG/92/00399/CR and JACC # 9207009.

               We have reviewed the matter and find that Andrews is entitled to a refund of
               $137.53 for items No. 46 (Flower Pot-$40.50), No. 49 (Flower Arrangement-$92.63),
               and No. 105 (Crystal Dish-$4.40). All of these items were noted by the shipper in
               the claim filed as being broken by the packer. Since Andrews was not the carrier
               who packed the items but picked the shipment up from nontemporary storage, it is
               clear this was preexisting damage, even if not so noted on the inventory, based on
               the evidence in the file. In addition, Andrews is now due the refund for item
               No. 126 (Wooden Duck - $15), which you had previously agreed was due but
               because it was less than the $25 threshold established in the Military-Industry
               Memorandum was not paid. Therefore, the total refund should be $152.53.
