L. 96–513, title V, § 503(29), Dec. 12, 1980, 94 Stat.

34 U.S.C. 634.
Mar. 3, 1899, ch. 413, § 19,
30 Stat. 1008; Mar. 3,
1903, ch. 1010, 32 Stat.
1198 (1st proviso in 5th
par., 48th word to end
of proviso).
The words ‘‘from other persons’’ are substituted for
the words ‘‘from civil life’’ because 34 U.S.C. 1020e au-
thorizes the appointment of graduates of the NROTC
program as well as of other persons in civil life. Such
graduates are, properly, persons in ‘‘civil life’’, since
they are members of the Naval Reserve who are not on
active duty. However, since the status of members of
the NROTC is not always clear, the statement of the
class is expanded.
