Sec. 6960. Midshipmen: clothing and equipment; uniform allowance

    The Secretary of the Navy may prescribe the amount to be credited to 
a midshipman, upon original admission to the Naval Academy, for the cost 
of his initial issue of clothing and equipment. That amount shall be 
deducted from his pay. If a midshipman is discharged before graduation 
while owing the United States for pay advanced for the purchase of 
required clothing and equipment, he shall turn in as much of his 
clothing and equipment of a distinctively 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.

(Aug. 10, 1956, ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 432.)
