of this title may be appointed an ensign in the Naval Reserve or a 
second lieutenant in the Marine Corps Reserve and designated a naval 
aviator.
    (b) Aviation cadets who complete their training at approximately the 
same time are considered for all purposes to have begun their

    In subsection (a) the proviso is omitted as unnecessary. Section 1 
of the Act of April 28, 1950, ch. 120, 64 Stat. 90, terminated service 
credit for lump-sum payments granted under Sec. 12 of the Act of August 
4, 1942, ch. 547, 56 Stat. 738, and thereby removed the only 
consequences of the proviso. The words ``section 6023(b) of this title'' 
are substituted for the words ``law for designation or appointment as 
naval aviators'' to provide specific reference to those requirements. 
The words ``and designated a naval aviator'' are added for clarity and 
to authorize specifically the designation, which is implied in 34 U.S.C. 
850f.


                               Amendments

    1980--Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 96-513 substituted ``section 2003'' for 
``section 6023(b)''.
