This limitation is applicable even though moving into the Government quarters may result in a savings of per diem to the Government over that which would have been payable had the member occupied commercial quarters. This action is in response to a letter dated(February 18, 1975, from Colonel , USA, , requesting recon- sideration of our Transportatlon and Claims Division (now Claims Division) settlement of February 7, 1975, disallowing his claim for additional Bachelor Officer Quarters (0Q) fees for the period September 5 through October 7, 1974. The record shows that by orders dated August 19, 1974, Colonel was ordered to proceed on temporary duty on or about September 3, 1974, from Fort Benaing, Georgia, to Fort Benjamin Harrison, Indiana, for a period of approximately 40 days, for the purpose of serving as a member of a Department of the Army Selection Board. The orders stated that Government mas and quarters were not available. The record further indicates that the member occupied commercial quarters on September 3 and 4, 1974. On September 5, the member voluntarily moved into the VIP BOQ at Fort Benjamin Harrison. He was charged, and paid, a total of $132, at the rate of $4 per night for the 33-day period, September 5 through October 7, 1974, during which he occupied the BOQ. dJb
