    In subsection (a) the words ``for the proper instruction of naval 
personnel'' and in subsection (b) the words ``out of naval 
appropriations'' are omitted as surplusage.
    In subsection (c) the words ``except the authority to prescribe 
regulations'' are omitted, since 34 U.S.C. 1071 contains no authority 
for the Secretary to prescribe regulations.
