Section 149. Detail of members to assist foreign governments
The President may upon application from the foreign governments
concerned, and whenever in his discretion the public interests
render such a course advisable, detail members of the Coast Guard
to assist foreign governments in matters concerning which the Coast
Guard may be of assistance. Members so detailed may accept, from
the government to which detailed, offices and such compensation and
emoluments thereunder appertaining as may be first approved by the
Secretary. While so detailed such members shall receive, in
addition to the compensation and emoluments allowed them by such
governments, the pay and allowances to which they are entitled in
the Coast Guard and shall be allowed the same credit for longevity,
retirement, and for all other purposes that they would receive if
they were serving with the Coast Guard.
