Military Personnel--Pay--Retired--Fleet Reserve--Active Duty After Transfer--Grissing Case

The conclusion in the Grissing Case, William Sebastian Ebinger et al. v. United States, C. Cls. No. 49615, decided October 9, 1957, that all active duty performed subsequent to transfer to the Fleet Reserve and subsequent to July 1, 1925 is credible for increased retainer and retired pay under section 208 of the Naval Reserve Act of 1938 is a tenable one and will be followed as precedent in the settlement of similar cases instead of the holding that only active duty performed during a period of national emergency declared by the President was credible under section 208.
