Sec. 707. Temporary members of the Reserve; disability or death

benefits

-STATUTE-

(a) If a temporary member of the Reserve is physically injured,

or dies as a result of physical injury, and the injury is incurred

incident to service while performing active duty, or engaged in

authorized travel to or from that duty, the law authorizing

compensation for employees of the United States suffering injuries

while in the performance of their duties, applies, subject to this

section. That law shall be administered by the Secretary of Labor

to the same extent as if the member was a civil employee of the

United States and was injured in the performance of that duty. For

benefit computation, regardless of pay or pay status, the member is

considered to have had monthly pay of the monthly equivalent of the

minimum rate of basic pay in effect for grade GS-9 of the General

Schedule on the date the injury is incurred.

(b) This section does not apply if the workmen's compensation law

of a State, a territory, or another jurisdiction provides coverage

because of a concurrent employment status of the temporary member.

When the temporary member or a dependent is entitled to a benefit

under this section and also to a concurrent benefit from the United

States on account of the same disability or death, the temporary

member or dependent, as appropriate, shall elect which benefit to

receive.

(c) If a claim is filed under this section with the Secretary of

Labor for benefits because of an alleged injury or death, the

Secretary of Labor shall notify the Commandant who shall direct an

investigation into the facts surrounding the alleged injury or

death. The Commandant shall then certify to the Secretary of Labor

whether or not the injured or deceased person was a temporary

member of the Reserve, the person's military status, and whether or

not the injury or death was incurred incident to military service.

(d) A temporary member of the Reserve, who incurs a physical

disability or contracts sickness or disease while performing a duty

to which the member has been assigned by competent authority, is

entitled to the same hospital treatment afforded a member of the

Regular Coast Guard.

(e) In administering section 8133 of title 5, for a person

covered by this section -

(1) the percentages applicable to payments under that section

are -

(A) 45 percent under subsection (a)(2) of that section, where

the member died fully or currently insured under title II of

the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 401 et seq.), with no

additional payments for a child or children so long as the

widow or widower remains eligible for payments under that

subsection;

(B) 20 percent under subsection (a)(3) of that section, for

one child, and 10 percent additional for each additional child,

not to exceed a total of 75 percent, where the member died

fully or currently insured under title II of the Social

Security Act; and

(C) 25 percent under subsection (a)(4) of that section, if

one parent was wholly dependent for support upon the deceased

member at the time of the member's death and the other was not

dependent to any extent; 16 percent to each if both were wholly

dependent; and if one was, or both were, partly dependent, a

proportionate amount in the discretion of the Secretary of

Labor;

(2) payments may not be made under subsection (a)(5) of that

section; and

(3) the Secretary of Labor shall inform the Commissioner of

Social Security whenever a claim is filed and eligibility for

compensation is established under subsection (a)(2) or (a)(3) of

section 8133 of title 5. The Commissioner of Social Security

shall then certify to the Secretary of Labor whether or not the

member concerned was fully or currently insured under title II of

the Social Security Act at the time of the member's death.

Sec. 709a. Reserve student pre-commissioning assistance program

-STATUTE-

(a) The Secretary may provide financial assistance to an eligible

enlisted member of the Coast Guard Reserve, not on active duty, for

expenses of the member while the member is pursuing on a full-time

basis at an institution of higher education a program of education

approved by the Secretary that leads to -

(1) a baccalaureate degree in not more than 5 academic years;

or

(2) a post-baccalaureate degree.

(b)(1) To be eligible for financial assistance under this

section, an enlisted member of the Coast Guard Reserve shall -

(A) be enrolled on a full-time basis in a program of education

referred to in subsection (a) at any institution of higher

education; and

(B) enter into a written agreement with the Coast Guard

described in paragraph (2).

(2) A written agreement referred to in paragraph (1)(B) is an

agreement between the member and the Secretary in which the member

agrees -

(A) to accept an appointment as a commissioned officer in the

Coast Guard Reserve, if tendered;

(B) to serve on active duty for up to five years; and

(C) under such terms and conditions as shall be prescribed by

the Secretary, to serve in the Coast Guard Reserve until the

eighth anniversary of the date of the appointment.

(c) Expenses for which financial assistance may be provided under

this section are the following:

(1) Tuition and fees charged by the institution of higher

education involved.

(2) The cost of books.

(3) In the case of a program of education leading to a

baccalaureate degree, laboratory expenses.

(4) Such other expenses as are deemed appropriate by the

Secretary.

(d) The amount of financial assistance provided to a member under

this section shall be prescribed by the Secretary, but may not

exceed $25,000 for any academic year.

(e) Financial assistance may be provided to a member under this

section for up to 5 consecutive academic years.

(f) A member who receives financial assistance under this section

may be ordered to active duty in the Coast Guard Reserve by the

Secretary to serve in a designated enlisted grade for such period

as the Secretary prescribes, but not more than 4 years, if the

member -

(1) completes the academic requirements of the program and

refuses to accept an appointment as a commissioned officer in the

Coast Guard Reserve when offered;

(2) fails to complete the academic requirements of the

institution of higher education involved; or

(3) fails to maintain eligibility for an original appointment

as a commissioned officer.

(g)(1) If a member requests to be released from the program and

the request is accepted by the Secretary, or if the member fails

because of misconduct to complete the period of active duty

specified, or if the member fails to fulfill any term or condition

of the written agreement required to be eligible for financial

assistance under this section, the financial assistance shall be

terminated. The Secretary may request the member to reimburse the

United States in an amount that bears the same ratio to the total

costs of the education provided to that member as the unserved

portion of active duty bears to the total period of active duty the

member agreed to serve. The Secretary shall have the option to

order such reimbursement without first ordering the member to

active duty. An obligation to reimburse the United States imposed

under this paragraph is a debt owed to the United States.

(2) The Secretary may waive the service obligated under

subsection (f) of a member who becomes unqualified to serve on

active duty due to a circumstance not within the control of that

member or who is not physically qualified for appointment and who

is determined to be unqualified for service as an enlisted member

of the Coast Guard Reserve due to a physical or medical condition

that was not the result of the member's own misconduct or grossly

negligent conduct.

(3) A discharge in bankruptcy under title 11 that is entered less

than 5 years after the termination of a written agreement entered

into under subsection (b) does not discharge the individual signing

the agreement from a debt arising under such agreement or under

paragraph (1).

(h) As used in this section, the term ''institution of higher

education'' has the meaning given that term in section 101 of the

Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 U.S.C. 1001).

Sec. 724. Authorized number of officers

-STATUTE-

(a) The authorized number of officers in the Reserve in an active

status is 5,000. The actual number of Reserve officers in an active

status at any time shall not exceed the authorized number unless

the Secretary determines that a greater number is necessary for

planned mobilization requirements, or unless the excess results

directly from the operation of law.

(b)(1) The authorized number of Reserve officers in an active

status below the grade of rear admiral (lower half) shall be

distributed in grade in the following percentages, respectively:

captain, 1.5; commander, 7.0; lieutenant commander, 22.0;

lieutenant, 37.0; and the combined grades of lieutenant (junior

grade) and ensign, 32.5. When the actual number of Reserve officers

in an active status in a grade is less than the number authorized,

the difference may be applied to increase the authorized number in

a lower grade. A Reserve officer may not be reduced in rank or

grade solely because of a reduction in an authorized number as

provided for in this subsection, or because an excess results

directly from the operation of law.

(2) The authorized number of Reserve Officers in an active status

not on active duty in the grades of rear admiral (lower half) and

rear admiral is a total of two. However, the Secretary of the

department in which the Coast Guard is operating may authorize an

additional number of Reserve officers not on active duty in the

grades of rear admiral (lower half) and rear admiral as necessary

in order to meet planned mobilization requirements.

(c) Deferral of Limitation. - If at the end of any fiscal year

there is in effect a declaration of war or national emergency, the

President may defer the effectiveness of any end-strength

limitation with respect to that fiscal year prescribed by law for

any military or civilian component of the Coast Guard Reserve, for

a period not to exceed 6 months after the end of the war or

termination of the national emergency.

(a) The Secretary shall assign a running mate to each Reserve

officer in an active status not on the active duty promotion list.

The officer initially assigned as a running mate under this section

shall be that officer on the active duty promotion list of the same

grade who is next senior in precedence to the Reserve officer

concerned. An officer who has twice failed of selection or who has

been considered but has not been recommended for continuation under

section 289 of this title shall not be assigned as a running mate

under this section.

(b) A Reserve officer in an active status not on the active duty

promotion list shall be assigned a new running mate as follows:

(1) If a previously assigned running mate is promoted from

below the promotion zone, is removed from the active duty

promotion list, suffers a loss of numbers, fails of selection,

fails to qualify for promotion, or declines an appointment after

being selected for promotion, the new running mate shall be that

officer on the active duty promotion list, of the same grade, who

is next senior to the previous running mate and who is, or may

become, eligible for consideration for promotion. If the

previous running mate was on a list of selectees for promotion,

the new running mate shall be that officer on the active duty

promotion list, of the same grade, who is on a list of selectees

for promotion and who is next senior to the previous running

mate.

(2) If a Reserve officer suffers a loss of numbers, the new

running mate shall be that officer on the active duty promotion

list who, after the loss of numbers has been effected, is the

running mate of the Reserve officer next senior to the Reserve

officer concerned.

(3) If a Reserve officer is considered for promotion and fails

of selection, fails to qualify for promotion, declines an

appointment after being selected for promotion, or has his or her

name removed from a list of selectees for promotion, and that

officer's running mate is promoted, the new running mate shall be

that officer on the active duty promotion list, of the same

grade, who, at the time the previous running mate was considered

for promotion, was next senior to the previous running mate, was

eligible for consideration for promotion, and whose name was not

included on a list of selectees for promotion.

(4) In a situation not expressly covered by this subsection,

the Secretary may assign a new running mate as necessary to

effect the intent of this section that inequitable changes of

precedence do not occur.

(c) A Reserve officer on the active duty promotion list shall, to

the extent practicable and consistent with the limitations imposed

by this section, be assigned as the running mate of all Reserve

officers junior to the officer, who are in an active status not on

the active duty promotion list, and who had a running mate in

common with the officer just prior to the time the officer was

placed on the active duty promotion list.

(d) The Secretary may adjust, as necessary, the date of rank of a

Reserve officer not on active duty so that the date will correspond

with that of the running mate assigned to the officer in accordance

with this section. If an overpayment of pay or allowances results

from adjusting the date of rank, the overpayment is not subject to

recoupment.

Sec. 729. Promotion; recommendations of selection boards

-STATUTE-

(a) Except as otherwise provided by law, a Reserve officer shall

only be promoted pursuant to the recommendation of a selection

board.

(b) The Secretary shall convene selection boards from time to

time to recommend Reserve officers for promotion to the next higher

grade. A board may be convened to consider officers in one or more

grades.

(c) A selection board shall, from among the names of those

eligible Reserve officers submitted to it, recommend for promotion

to the next higher grade:

(1) those officers serving in the grade of lieutenant (junior

grade) or above whom it considers to be best qualified; and

(2) those officers serving in the grade of ensign whom it

considers to be fully qualified.

(d)(1) Before convening a selection board to recommend Reserve

officers for promotion, the Secretary shall establish a promotion

zone for officers serving in each grade to be considered by the

board. The Secretary shall determine the number of officers in the

promotion zone for officers serving in any grade from among

officers who are eligible for promotion in that grade.

(2)(A) Before convening a selection board to recommend Reserve

officers for promotion to a grade (other than the grade of

lieutenant (junior grade)), the Secretary shall determine the

maximum number of officers in that grade that the board may

recommend for promotion.

(B) The Secretary shall make the determination under subparagraph

(A) of the maximum number that may be recommended with a view to

having in an active status a sufficient number of Reserve officers

in each grade to meet the needs of the Coast Guard for Reserve

officers in an active status.

(C) In order to make the determination under subparagraph (B),

the Secretary shall determine the following:

(i) The number of positions needed to accomplish mission

objectives that require officers in the grade to which the board

will recommend officers for promotion.

(ii) The estimated number of officers needed to fill vacancies

in such positions during the period in which it is anticipated

that officers selected for promotion will be promoted.

(iii) The number of officers authorized by the Secretary to

serve in an active status in the grade under consideration.

(iv) Any statutory limitation on the number of officers in any

grade authorized to be in an active status.

(3)(A) The Secretary may, when the needs of the Coast Guard

require, authorize the consideration of officers in a grade above

lieutenant (junior grade) for promotion to the next higher grade

from below the promotion zone.

(B) When selection from below the promotion zone is authorized,

the Secretary shall establish the number of officers that may be

recommended for promotion from below the promotion zone. That

number may not exceed the number equal to 10 percent of the maximum

number of officers that the board is authorized to recommend for

promotion, except that the Secretary may authorize a greater

number, not to exceed 15 percent of the total number of officers

that the board is authorized to recommend for promotion, if the

Secretary determines that the needs of the Coast Guard so require.

If the maximum number determined under this subparagraph is less

than one, the board may recommend one officer for promotion from

below the promotion zone.

(C) The number of officers recommended for promotion from below

the promotion zone does not increase the maximum number of officers

that the board is authorized to recommend for promotion under

paragraph (2).

(e) The law and regulations relating to the selection for

promotion of a commissioned officer of the Regular Coast Guard to

the grades of rear admiral (lower half) and rear admiral apply to a

Reserve officer, except that to be eligible for consideration for

promotion to the grade of rear admiral (lower half) an officer

shall have completed at least ten years commissioned service, of

which the last five years shall have been served in the Coast Guard

Reserve.

(f) The provisions of section 260 of this title apply to boards

convened under this section. The Secretary shall determine the

procedure to be used by a selection board.

(g) The report of a selection board shall be submitted to the

Secretary for review and transmission to the President for

approval. When an officer recommended by a board for promotion is

not acceptable to the President, the President may remove the name

of that officer from the report of the board.

(h) The recommendations of a selection board, as approved by the

President, constitute a list of selectees from which the promotions

of Reserve officers shall be made. An officer on a list of

selectees remains thereon until promoted unless removed by the

President under section 738 of this title. If an existing list of

selectees has not been exhausted by the time a later list has been

approved, all officers remaining on the older list shall be

tendered appointments prior to those on the later list.

(i) A Reserve officer whose name is on a list of selectees for

promotion shall, unless that officer's promotion is lawfully

withheld, be tendered an appointment in the next higher grade on

the date a vacancy occurs, or as soon thereafter as practicable in

the grade to which the officer was selected for promotion or, if

promotion was determined in accordance with a running mate system,

at the same time, or as soon thereafter as practicable, as that

officer's running mate is tendered a similar appointment.

2000 - Subsec. (d). Pub. L. 106-398 amended subsec. (d)

generally. Prior to amendment, subsec. (d) read as follows:

''Before convening a selection board to recommend Reserve officers

for promotion to a grade above lieutenant (junior grade), the

Secretary shall determine the total number of Reserve officers to

be selected for promotion to that grade. The number to be selected

shall normally be equal to the number of vacancies existing in that

grade, plus the number of vacancies anticipated over the next

twelve months, minus the number of officers on the list of

selectees for that grade. The Secretary may, however, prescribe

regulations that provide for the establishment of promotion

opportunity percentages for each grade to ensure that equitable

promotion opportunities exist among successive groups of Reserve

officers being considered for promotion. The number so determined

may not cause the number of Reserve officers in an active status in

a grade to exceed that authorized for the grade concerned.''

1985 - Subsec. (e). Pub. L. 99-145 substituted ''rear admiral

(lower half)'' for ''commodore'' wherever appearing.

1983 - Subsec. (e). Pub. L. 97-417 substituted ''the grades of
