submitted 70 years ago by ch. 1041 to r/title-10-ARMED-FORCES · 61 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Secretary of the Army can replace clothing destroyed to stop the spread of disease. This applies to a sick enlisted soldier and to any hospital worker who cared for them. The Surgeon General must first recommend the replacement.

If the Surgeon General recommends it, the Secretary of the Army may order free replacement clothing for an enlisted Army member who had a contagious disease, and for any hospital attendant who cared for that member while they were sick. This replaces clothing that a Medical Corps officer ordered destroyed to prevent the disease from spreading.
