          Decision



          Matterof:      Colonel Joe H. Engle, USAF (Retired)--
                         Air National Guard Appointment
          File:          B-227435

          Date:          September 25, 1987


            DIGEST

            Retired officers of the Regular Air Force who are duly
            appointed as Reserves of the Air Force for service in the
            Air National Guard of the United States are entitled to the
            pay and allowances prescribed by law for duty performed
            under their Reserve appointments, provided that they waive
            their military retired pay on the days for which they claim
            National Guard pay and allowances. Current Air National
            Guard regulations limit this arrangement to appointments
            to the position of Adjutant General or Assistant Adjutant
            General of a State. If the Secretary of the Air Force
            concludes that retired members of the Regular Air Force
            should be eligible for appointment to other positions in
            the Air National Guard, however, the Secretary may amend
            the regulations to authorize such additional appointments.


            DECISION

            The issue presented here is whether a retired colonel of the
            Regular Air Force may accept an appointment as a Reserve
            officer of the Air Force, and on the basis of that appoint-
            ment receive compensation for service performed in the grade
            of brigadier general in the position of Air National Guard
            Advisor to the United States Air Force's Space Command.l/
            Air National Guard regulations preclude the appointment of
            a retired member of the uniformed services except to the
            positions of Adjutant General or Assistant Adjutant General
            of a State. Therefore, unless the Secretary of the Air


            1/ This action is in response to a request for an advance
            decision received from the Assistant Secretary of the Air
            Force for Manpower and Reserve Affairs. The Assistant
            Secretary's request has been assigned submission number
            SF-AF-1475 by the Department of Defense Military Pay and
            Allowance Committee.
