    The words ``The chaplain may be reappointed'' are substituted for 
the words ``and said chaplain shall be eligible for reappointment for an 
additional term or terms''. The figures ``$5,482.80'' and ``$6,714'' are 
substituted for the figures ``$4,000'' and ``$5,000'' to reflect 
increases in the rates of salary of that office effected by the Federal 
Employees Pay Act of 1945, 59 Stat. 295, the Federal Employees Pay Act 
of 1946, 60 Stat. 216, the Postal Rate Revision and Federal Employees 
Salary Act of 1948, 62 Stat. 1260, and the Classification Act of 1949, 
63 Stat. 954.

                            1962 Act

    The change reflects the opinion of the Assistant General Counsel, 
Civil Service Commission (GC: JHF:fz, May 4, 1959), that those parts of 
section 4337 and 9337 of title 10 that relate to the salaries of the 
chaplains at the United States Military Academy and the United States 
Air Force Academy were superseded by the Classification Act of 1949 (5 
U.S.C. 1071 et seq.). While the positions of chaplain at those Academies 
are not specifically covered by the Act, the Act has been determined to 
apply to those positions in accordance with section 203 thereof (5 
U.S.C. 1083).


                               Amendments

    1962--Pub. L. 87-651 struck out provisions which prescribed the 
salary of chaplain on appointment and reappointment.

                         Delegation of Functions

    Functions of President under this section delegated to Secretary of 
Defense, see section 1(5) of Ex. Ord. No. 11390, Jan. 22, 1968, 33 F.R. 
841, set out as a note under section 301 of Title 3, The President.
