§8185. Nautical Schools: detail of naval officers as superintendents or instructors

The President may detail officers of the Navy as superintendents or instructors of institutions receiving benefits under chapter 515 of title 46 when in his opinion it can be done without detriment to the naval service. Officers so detailed shall be recalled from an institution if it is discontinued or if the good of the naval service requires.

The words "naval service" are substituted for the words "public service" for uniformity within the section. The citation of the act establishing the nautical institutions is substituted for the words "such schools" for clarity. The word "proper" is omitted as surplusage.
