                       Expenses

          File:        B-242804

          Date:        June 3, 1991



          DIGZST

          An employee on annual leave was recalled to duty, but became
          ill before he could respond. He remained at the'leave point
          in a sick leave status and required his wife's assistance for
          his return travel. His claim for his wife's travel expenses
          and for his return travel at the conclusion of the illness is
          denied. An employee on annual leave is required to return to
          duty a, his own expense, even when officially reca.1ed to
          duty. His need for assisted travel due to illness which
          occurred while on annual leave does not alter that conclusion.
