Plaintiff seeks readjustment pay under the provisions of 10 U.S.C. § 687 (Supp. III, 1965-67). This case came before the court on plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment. Upon consideration thereof, together with the response in opposition thereto, without oral argument, the court concluded, on the basis of the decision by this court in Schmid v. United States, 193 Ct. Cl. 780, 436 F. 2d 987 (1971), cert. denied, 404 U.S. 951, that plaintiff is entitled to recover.

In accordance with the order of the court, a memorandum report of the commissioner as to the amunt due, and a stipulation of the parties, on January 29,1973 judgment was entered for plaintiff for $8,640.00.
