C. 20C548 FILE: B-207624 DATE: October 19, 1982 MATTER OF: Sergeant First Class Lloyd P. Powell, USA Under permanent change-of-station orders, an Army sergeant traveled from Germany to Fort Wainwright, Alaska, which was designated in the orders as his new permanent duty station. In fact, his assign- ment to Fort Wainwright was merely for the purpose of undergoing processing at the personnel center there and diversion to another Alaskan post for permanent duty. During the personnel processing Fort Richardson, Alaska, was designated as his new permanent duty station. He claims temporary lodg- ing allowances for the 2-day period he resided in temporary quarters at Fort Wainwright. He is not entitled to temporary lodging allowances since that allowance is a permanent station allowance and Fort Wainwright was actually not his permanent duty sta- tion. However, he is entitled to per diem allowances for the 2-day period since he was in a travel status en route to his genuine permanent duty station at Fort Richardson. This action is in response to a request submitted by Major R. F. Hawley, Finance and Accounting Officer, Fort Richard- son, Alaska, for an advance decision concerning the entitlement of Sergeant First Class Lloyd P. Powell to temporary lodging allowances for a 2-day stay at Fort Wainwright, Alaska, to under- go personnel processing while en route to Fort Richardson, Alaska, on a permanent change-of-station assignment. The request was assigned control number 82-13 by the Department of Defense Per Diem, Travel and Transportation Allowance Committee. As explained below, we find that Sergeant Powell is not entitled to temporary lodging allowances, but he is entitled to per diem allowances for the time he was delayed at Fort Wainwright for personnel processing. Sergeant Powell received permanent change-of-station orders dated July 7, 1981, for reassignment from Germany to Alaska on an accompanied tour of duty to commence in October 1981. The orders designated Fort Wainwright, Alaska, as his new permanent duty station. When he arrived at Fort Wainwright on October 25, he secured off-post temporary lodgings for himself and his family.
