a. Shipment of Personal Firearms To and From Foreign Posts
(1) 6 FAM 168 has been amended, effective 28 October 1970, to
include a new paragraph -- 168. 5 -- entitled "EMPLOYEE
RESPONSIBILITY FOR SHIPMENT OF PERSONALLY OWNED
FIREARMS AND AMMUNITION. " This requires each employee
to consult the post report and/or the post administrative officer
to determine restrictions and limitations, if any, to ship personally
owned firearms and ammunition into the country of assignment. It
is now a requirement that the post report include prescribed pro-
cedures. If post reports are not available the employee, before
initiating shipment, must secure written authorization from the
Chief of Mission or his designee.
(2) 6 FAM 183 has also been amended, effective 28 October 1970,
with the addition of a new paragraph -- 183. 2-2 -- entitled
"IMPORTATION OF PERSONALLY OWNED FIREARMS AND
AMMUNITION INTO THE UNITED STATES. " The procedures to
be followed are the result of the importation provisions of the Gun
Control Act of 1968.
(3) Earlier we had advised you of the necessity to set up a
positive briefing of outgoing persons on the shipment of firearms
and ammunition and we have furnished you copies of all replies
from Chiefs of Mission which state the limitations applicable to
the country involved.

~ i. Travel of Retirees to Receive Honor Awards Retirees called from
their retirement point to be presented an honor award should be covered by a
travel order for payment of round trip transportation and per diem. Spouses
may be included in the travel order with Deputy Director approval but other
members of the family attending the ceremony would be at personal expense.
The rule of reason must prevail and this practice should generally be con-
fined to medal presentations. Instances of use of this should be rare since
every effort must be made to obtain approvals for honor awards well before
the date the person departs.
