Public Health Service Officer's Claim for Reimbursement for Expenses of Moving Household Goods From Storage

The claim of a former Public Health Service officer for reimbursement of expenses of moving his household goods from storage to his residence was questioned. The goods were placed in storage with no designated destination before expiration of a 1-year period after his release from active duty and remained in storage for 1 year and 8 months. Storage and transportation charges may not be paid since the goods were not turned over "for shipment" within the 1-year period prescribed by regulations.
