Chapter 11. PERSONNEL |
Level ENLISTED MEMBERS |
§ 359. Recall to active duty during war or national emergency
-
In times of war or national emergency, the Commandant may order any enlisted member on the retired list to active duty.
Historical And Revision
Based on title 14, U.S.C., 1946 ed., § 185c (May 24, 1939, ch. 146, § 4, 53 Stat. 755).
This section was changed so as to make provisions for enlisted men parallel to similar provisions for commissioned and warrant officers (see §§ 240 and 310 of the revised title). It seems fair and equitable that similar provisions should apply to all classes of personnel insofar as practicable. 81st Congress, House Report No. 557.
Amendments
1984—Pub. L. 98–557 substituted reference to enlisted member for reference to enlisted man.
1950—Act
Miscellaneous
For delegation of authority under this section, as invoked by section 2 of Ex. Ord. No. 13223,
