HISTORICAL AND REVISION NOTES
Derived from title 34, U.S.C., 1946 ed., §885, and title 14, U.S.C., 1946 ed., §3a (May 22, 1928, ch. 688, 45 Stat. 712; Oct. 26, 1942, ch. 623, 56 Stat. 987). Said section 885 was made applicable to the Coast Guard by title 14, U.S.C., 1946 ed., §3a whenever the Coast Guard is operating with the Navy. Experience has shown the advantage of having such a provision applicable to the Coast Guard at all times. Said section would in no way be affected. 81st Congress, House Report No. 557. AMENDMENTS2018—Pub. L. 115–282 renumbered section 488 of this title as this section. 1984—Pub. L. 98–557 substituted reference to members for reference to officers and men. |
