                   William P. Barlow -Overtime compensation

   DIGEST:
              Civilian -guard employed by Department of
              Air Force may not be paid overtime for
              duty performed during 20-minute lunch
              period since lunches were eaten during
              his normal 8-hour shift for which he has
              been compensated.

        This action concerns the request by Captain J. D. Driskill,
    Accounting and Finance Officer, Department of the Air Force, dated
    January 20, 1976,. for our decision as to the propriety of certify-
    ing for payment the voucher of Mr. Willia. P. Barlow for overtime
    compensation. Mr. Barlow claims overtime pay for duty which he
    performed from April 12, 1964, to December 3, 1973, as a guard
    during his 20-minute lunch period while on post time within his
  scheduled  8-hour tour of duty.

        The record indicates that during the period for which over-
    time pay is claimed, Mr. Barlow was a civilian employee of the
    United States Air Force Civilian Guard Force at the Davis-M1onthan
    Air Force Base, Arizona. The claimant was assigned to specific
    tours of duty which included an 8-hour on post tour and certain
    preshift or postshift periods of paid overtime for guard mount
    purposes. A 20-minute on-the-job lunch period was authorized as
    part of the 8-hour on post shift during the period of the claim
    pursuant to paragraph 7 Air' Force Regulation (AIFR) 40-523 (July 11,
    1963, and November 1, 1965), paragraph 5 of A4R 40-523 (October 31,
    1968), and paragraph 7 of AFR 40-610 (September 15, 1971).   The
    cited regulations provided:

                   **  * Where more than one 8-hour
             shift is in operation during a 24-hour
             period and an overlapping of shifts to
             permit time off for lunch is not feasi-
             ble, an on-the-job lunch period of M0
             minutes or less may be authorized and
             included in the regularly scheduled
             hours of duty. Workers must spend
             their on-the-job lunch period time
