                          TITLE 14--COAST GUARD
 
                       PART I--REGULAR COAST GUARD
 
                          CHAPTER 11--PERSONNEL
 
                           GENERAL PROVISIONS
 
Sec. 422. Status of recalled personnel

    All retired personnel when recalled to active duty shall serve in 
the grade or rate in which they were serving at the time of retirement.

(Aug. 4, 1949, ch. 393, 63 Stat. 524; Pub. L. 99-348, title II, 
Sec. 205(b)(10), July 1, 1986, 100 Stat. 700.)


                      Historical and Revision Notes

    This provision is desirable because many enlisted men and low-
ranking officers may now retire with higher grade which they previously 
held on a temporary basis. If recalled in the higher grades, they might 
not be capable of holding same at the time of recall. 81st Congress, 
House Report No. 557.


                               Amendments

    1986--Pub. L. 99-348 substituted ``rate'' for ``rating''.
