1.  Employee of Departcnt of the Army was
    transferred from Milwaukee, Wisconsin,
    to Selfridge Air Force Base (AFB),
    Michigan, and then Crom Selfridge AFB
    to Huntsville, Alabama. He claims reim-
    bursement of real estate expenses incident
    to sale of residence in Milwaukee. Ea-
    ployee is rot entitled to reinburrament
    in connection with transfer to Huntsville
    because residence which was sold was not
    at old station and he did not regularly
    commuta between Selfridge AFB and such
    residence.: Also, he in not entitled tc
    reimbursemtrnt in connection with transfer
    from Mllaukee to Selfridge since time
    limit for sale has expired.


           2.  Employee did nit move from Wisconsin to
               Michigan at the time of transfer to
               Seifridge AFB due to possible closing
               of base.  Although emp oyee saved Gov-
               ernment expenses of two moves, he is not
               tireby  entitled to reimbursement. Only
               exception to commuting requirement of
               regulations is where station is in
               remote area and adequate family housing
               is not available within a reasonable
               daily commuting time, and there is no
               indication that such housing did not
               exist at Selfridge AFB.

     This is in respoi.ne to an inquiry dated Au&ust 4, 1977, from
Senator William ProxAire. 'Thatinquiry constitutes a request for
reconsideration of our Claims Division's settlement of March 5,
1976, Certificate No. Z-2576814, by which Mr. Fred Kaczmaraski's
