"(a) When a member of an armed force is ordered to make a change 
of permanent station, one motor vehicle owned by him and for his 
personal use or the use of his dependents may, unless a motor vehicle 
owned by him was transported in advance of that change of permanent 
station under section 406(h) of title 37, be transported, at the expense 
of the United States, to his new station or such other place as the 
Secretary concerned may authorize— 
"(1) on a vessel owned, leased, or chartered by the United 
States; 
" (2) by privately owned American shipping services; or 
"(3) by foreign-flag shipping services if shipping services 
described in clauses (1) and (2) are not reasonably available. 
When the Secretary concerned, or his designee, determines that a 
replacement for that motor vehicle is necessary for reasons beyond the 
control of the member and is in the interest of the United States, and 
he approves the transportation in advance, one additional motor vehicle 
3f the member may be so transported. 
" (b) In this section, 'change of permanent station' means the trans-
fer or assignment of a member of the armed forces from one perma-
nent station to another.
