    The words ``members of the Air Force'' are substituted for the words 
``Signal Corps'', since the Air Force does not have organic corps 
created by statute. The words ``Government'', ``and to this end'', ``as 
may be'', and ``amount of such'' are omitted as surplusage.


                               Amendments

    1996--Pub. L. 104-316 substituted ``of the forwarding'' for ``, or 
may file a claim with the General Accounting Office for the forwarding'' 
in second sentence.
    1982--Pub. L. 97-258 substituted ``official'' for ``officer''.
