§430. Travel and transportation: dependent children of members stationed overseas
(a) Under regulations to be prescribed by the Secretary of Defense, a member of a uniformed service who—
(1) is assigned a permanent duty station outside the continental United States,
(2) is accompanied by his dependents at or near his duty station (unless his only dependents are in the category of dependent described in clause (3)), and
(3) has a dependent child who is under 23 years of age attending a school in the continental United States for the purpose of obtaining a secondary or undergraduate college education,
may be paid the allowance set forth in subsection (b) if he otherwise qualifies for such allowance.
(b) A member described in subsection (a) may be paid a transportation allowance for each unmarried dependent child, who is under 23 years of age and is attending a school in the continental United States for the purpose of obtaining a secondary or undergraduate college education, of one annual trip between the school being attended and the member's duty station outside the continental United States and return. The allowance authorized by this section may be transportation in kind or reimbursement therefor, as prescribed by the Secretaries concerned. However, the transportation authorized by this section may not be paid a member for a child attending a school in the continental United States for the purpose of obtaining a secondary education if the child is eligible to attend a secondary school for dependents that is located at or in the vicinity of the duty station of the member and is operated under the Defense Dependents’ Education Act of 1978 (20 U.S.C. 921 et seq.).
(c) Whenever possible, the Military Airlift Command or Military Sealift Command shall be used, on a space-required basis, for the travel authorized by this section.
(d) For a member assigned to duty outside the continental United States, transportation under this section may be provided a dependent child as described in subsection (a)(3) who is attending a school in Alaska or Hawaii.
(e) The transportation allowance authorized by this section (whether transportation in kind or reimbursement) may not be paid in the case of a member assigned to a permanent duty station in Alaska or Hawaii for a child attending a school in the State of the permanent duty station.
(f) In this section, the term “continental United States” means the 48 contiguous States and the District of Columbia.
