Help with PCS(DLA related)
Good evening all,
I am PCSing from Pendleton to Richmond, VA in March. I am not married and I love in the barracks. I am doing a DITY move because I don't have a lot of items and it just makes more sense considering I have to drive my car regardless. I was told by my IPAC that single Marines with no dependents does not rate DLA(Dislocation allowance) unless they are a E-7 or above. I looked up the joint federal travel regulations(Ch. 5 para. G) and it clearly states " service member without dependent(s) is authorized DLA when relocated ICW a PCS to a PDS where a GOV'T QTRS are not assigned " The new duty station is at a recruiting station and there are no barracks there. I am calling that command tomorrow to get a letter stating that fact. Can I get some kind of clarification on the matter? Is there a MarAdmin regarding this? Thank you for any help in advance.
TL;DR Can a single Marine with no dependents still receive DLA regardless of rank?

the JFTR states that all Marines pcs'ing are authorized (with rates starting at E1) to DLA when tranferring (outside close proximity). You're admin office needs a lesson in regulations. DFAS has a link you can simply google up to find your rate. There is no rank requirement that is in any regulation on this.

Thank you. I brought it up with my chain of command and they stated the same thing.
