    law of the other State, his Federal service and Federal wages shall 
    be assigned to the other State; and
        (2) if his last official station in Federal service, before 
    filing his first claim, was outside the United States, his Federal 
    service and Federal wages shall be assigned to the State where he 
    resides at the time he files his first claim.
