(A)is serving in the Armed Forces; or

(B)has served in, or has been honorably discharged from, the Armed Forces; and

(Pub. L. 105–225, Aug. 12, 1998, 112 Stat. 1320; Pub. L. 112–65, § 1, Dec. 13, 2011, 125 Stat. 767.)

In clause (1), before subclause (A), the words “(who has given a mother’s care at least since the stepchild was age 13)” are substituted for “(a stepmother eligible for membership in the Blue Star Mothers of America, Inc., can claim that eligibility only if she has given a mother’s care to the stepchild from the age of thirteen or under)” for clarity and to eliminate unnecessary words.
