When authorized by the Secretary of the Air Force, a disbursing official of Air Force or Space Force subsistence funds may keep a limited amount of those funds in the personal possession and at the risk of the disbursing official to pay small amounts to public creditors.
(Added Pub. L. 97–258, § 2(b)(14)(B), Sept. 13, 1982, 96 Stat. 1058; amended Pub. L. 116–283, div. A, title IX, § 923(e)(24), Jan. 1, 2021, 134 Stat. 3820.)
The words “Secretary of the Air Force” are substituted for “Secretary of War” because of sections 205(a) and 207(a) and
(f)of the Act of July 26, 1947 (ch. 343, 61 Stat. 501, 502), and sections 1 and 53 of the Act of August 10, 1956 (ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 157, 488, 676). For comparable provisions that apply to the Army, see the revision note for 10:4841.
