The Secretary of the Navy, under regulations prescribed by him and without expense to the United States, may lend or give—

(1)to the sponsor of a vessel the name plate or any small article of negligible or sentimental value from that vessel; and

(2)to any State, group, or organization named in section 8765 of this title any article, material, or equipment, including silver service, given by it.

(Aug. 10, 1956, ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 466, § 7546; renumbered § 8766 and amended Pub. L. 115–232, div. A, title VIII, §§ 807(d)(8), 809(a), Aug. 13, 2018, 132 Stat. 1836, 1840.)

The words “the sponsor” are substituted for the words “any individual who sponsored” for brevity. The word “ship” and the word “person” are omitted as surplusage. The words “the loans or gifts described in this section shall be made” are omitted as unnecessary, and the words “under regulations prescribed by him” are substituted for the words “subject to such rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Navy” for brevity.
