Sec. 4350. Cadets: clothing and equipment

    (a) The Secretary of the Army may prescribe the amount to be 
credited to a cadet, upon original admission to the Academy, for the 
cost of his initial issue of clothing and equipment. That amount shall 
be deducted from his pay. If a cadet is discharged before graduation 
while owing the United States for pay advanced for the purchase of 
required clothing and equipment, he shall turn in so much of his 
clothing and equipment of a distinctive military nature as is necessary 
to repay the amount advanced. If the value of the clothing and equipment 
turned in does not cover the amount owed, the indebtedness shall be 
canceled.
    (b) Under such regulations as the Secretary may prescribe, uniforms 
and equipment shall be furnished to a cadet at the Academy upon his 
request.

    In subsection (a), the words ``while owing the United States for pay 
advanced for the purchase of'' are substituted for the words ``who is 
indebted to the United States on account of advances of pay to 
purchase''. The words ``as is necessary to repay the amount advanced'' 
are substituted for the words ``to the extent required to discharge such 
indebtedness''.
    In subsection (b), the word ``accouterments'' is omitted as 
surplusage. The words ``by the Government'' and ``such restrictions 
and'' are omitted as surplusage. The words ``at cost'' are omitted to 
reflect Title IV of the National Security Act of 1947, as amended (63 
Stat. 585), which authorized the Secretary of Defense to prescribe 
regulations governing the use and sale of certain inventories at cost, 
including applicable administrative expenses. (See opinion of the 
Assistant General Counsel (Fiscal Matters) of the Office of the 
Secretary of Defense, January 4, 1955.)
