The section is enlarged to cover officers of the Air Force under authority of § 305(a) of the National Security Act of 1947, as amended (5 U.S.C. 171e).
In subsection (a) the words “at the request of the Secretary of the Army and the Secretary of the Treasury” are omitted as surplusage. The words “to receive instruction” are inserted after the listing of the services and the words “attendance and” are omitted. The word “grades” is substituted for the word “ranks”.
In subsection (c) the words “rules and” are omitted. The words “who are officers of the naval service” are substituted for the words “of the United States Navy”, since officers of the Marine Corps are occasionally ordered to attend the Postgraduate School on the same basis as officers of the Navy.
