PART 8_NATIONAL SERVICE LIFE INSURANCE--Table of Contents
 
Sec.  8.27  Conditional designation of beneficiary.

    If the insured by notice in writing to the Department of Veterans 
Affairs during his lifetime has provided that a designated beneficiary 
shall be entitled to the proceeds of National Service life insurance 
only if such beneficiary shall survive him for such period (not more 
than 30 days), as specified by the insured, no right to the insurance 
shall vest as to such beneficiary during that period. In the event such 
beneficiary fails to survive the specified period, payment of the 
proceeds of National Service life insurance will be made as if the 
beneficiary had predeceased the insured.
