Section 308. Federal recognition of officers: temporary recognition

      (a) The Secretary of the Army may authorize the extension of
    temporary Federal recognition as an officer of the Army National
    Guard to any person who has passed the examination prescribed in
    section 307(b) of this title, pending his appointment as a reserve
    officer of the Army. The Secretary of the Air Force may do likewise
    for a person who has passed that examination pending his
    appointment as a reserve officer of the Air Force. Temporary
    recognition so extended may be withdrawn at any time. If not sooner
    withdrawn or replaced by permanent recognition upon appointment as
    a reserve officer in the same grade, it terminates six months after
    its effective date.
      (b) To be eligible for temporary Federal recognition under
    subsection (a), a person must take an oath that during the period
    of temporary recognition he will perform his Federal duties as if
    he had been appointed as a reserve officer of the Army or the Air
    Force, as the case may be.
