specifically included, where applicable, in the revised chapter. The 
words ``together with any improvement thereto'' and ``of the United 
States'' are omitted as surplusage. 50:886(c) is omitted, since the 
reserve components of the armed forces are named in section 261 of this 
title. 50:886(d) is omitted, since its subject matter is covered by 
other relevant sections of the revised chapter.
