Sec.  71.3  Deductions from benefits.



    If a civilian American citizen or his dependents receives or has 

received from the United States any payments on account of the same 

injury or death, or from his employer in the form of wages or payments 

in lieu of wages, or in any form of support or compensation (including 

workmen's compensation) in respect to the same objects, the benefits 

under this subchapter shall be diminished in the case of an injured 

person by the amount of payments such injured person received on account 

of the same injury or disability, or in the case of dependents, by the 

amount of payments such dependents of the deceased civilian American 

citizen received on account of the same death, as the case may be.
