member of a reserve component with the member's consent, an authority

agreement with the member requiring the member to serve for a period of

concerned may, without the consent of the member, be kept on active
duty as otherwise prescribed by law.
``(e) Early Release.--(1) An agreement made under subsection (a)
shall provide that the member will not, without the consent of the
member, be released from active duty during the period of the

accordance with the recommendation of a board of officers
appointed by an authority designated by the Secretary concerned
to determine the members to be released from active duty under
regulations prescribed by the Secretary; or
``(B) for any other reason, without an opportunity to be
heard by a board of officers before the release, unless the
member is--
``(i) dismissed or discharged under the sentence of
a court-martial;
``(ii) released because of an unexplained absence
without leave for at least 3 months;
``(iii) released because the member is convicted
and sentenced to confinement in a Federal or State
penitentiary or correctional institution and the
sentence has become final; or
``(iv) released because the member has been
considered at least twice and has not been recommended
for promotion to the next higher grade or because the
member is considered as having failed of selection for
promotion to the next higher grade and has not been
recommended for promotion to that grade, under
conditions that would require the release or separation
of a reserve component officer who is not serving under
such agreement.
``(2) A member who is, without the consent of the member, released
from active duty before the end of the member's agreement made under
subsection (a) is entitled to an amount computed by multiplying the
number of years and fractions of a year of the member's unexpired
period of service under the agreement by the sum of one month's basic
pay, special pay, and allowances to which the member is entitled on the
day of the member's release. The amount to which a member is entitled
under this paragraph is in addition to any pay and allowances to which
the member is otherwise entitled. For the purposes of this paragraph, a
fraction of a month of 15 days or more is counted as a whole month, and
a fraction of a month of less than 15 days is disregarded. This
paragraph shall not apply to a member if the member is--

or (iii) of paragraph (1)(B);

of this title, is ordered to active duty, and placed on the active-duty
list, may be ordered to active duty in a reserve grade and with a date
of rank and position on the active-duty list determined under
regulations prescribed by the Secretary of Defense based upon the
amount of service credited.
``Sec. 12316. Kinds of duty
``Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a member of a reserve

Active Duty.--A member of a reserve component who is retained on active
duty after the member's term of service expires is entitled to pay and
allowances while on that duty, except that the pay and allowances may
be forfeited--

``(2) by non-judicial punishment by a commanding officer;
or
``(3) when the member is otherwise in a non-pay status.
``Sec. 12319. Payment of certain members while on duty
``(a) In General.--Except as provided by subsection (b), a member
of a reserve component who because of the member's earlier military
service is entitled to a pension, retired or retainer pay, or
disability compensation, and who performs duty for which the member is
entitled to compensation, may elect to receive for that duty either--
``(1) the payments to which the member is entitled because
of the member's earlier military service; or
``(2) if the member specifically waives those payments, the
pay and allowances authorized by law for the duty that the
member is performing.
``(b) Payments.--Unless the payments described in subsection (a)(1)
are greater than the compensation described in subsection (a)(2), a
member of a reserve component who because of the member's earlier
military service is entitled to a pension, retired or retainer pay, or
disability compensation, and who upon being ordered to active duty for
a period of more than 30 days in time of war or national emergency is
found physically qualified to perform that duty, ceases to be entitled
to the payments because of the member's earlier military service until
the period of active duty ends. While on that active duty, the member
is entitled to the compensation described in subsection (a)(2). Other
rights and benefits of the member or the member's dependents are
unaffected by this subsection.

described in the preceding sentence may not be withheld (in whole or in

determining which units or members of the reserve components may,
without the consent of the members, be ordered to active duty under

``(2) If a member is released from active duty or full-time
National Guard duty and subsequently ordered to active duty or full-
time National Guard duty with a break in service of 24 hours or fewer,

shall cite the authority and the purpose of the order to duty,
