(a) Custody and use.--When units of the Pennsylvania National Guard are called or ordered into the service of the United States, all furniture, permanent property and equipment located in their respective armories, purchased from State or municipal funds, or donated to the unit from private sources, will be left in the armory and will be taken into custody by the board, to be used by units of the Pennsylvania military forces, the Pennsylvania National Guard and the Pennsylvania Guard assigned to the armory, until such time as the Pennsylvania National Guard unit or organization returns.

(b) Reassignment and disposition.--If, upon the reorganization of the Pennsylvania National Guard following a war or emergency, the organization is not reorganized or is assigned to another location within this Commonwealth, then the property in question becomes the property of the Commonwealth to assign, reassign and dispose of as the board may decide or direct.
