(1), (2), (3), (4), or (6) of subsection (c) shall be paid at a

rate of basic pay which is not less than the rate of basic pay to

which he would have been entitled if he had not been assigned to

duty outside the United States.

(e)(1) Each employee who is displaced from a position by reason

of the exercise of a return right under subsection (c)(1) shall be

placed, as of the date of such displacement, without reduction in

seniority, status, and tenure, in a vacant existing position or new

continuing position, for which he is qualified, available in the
