submitted 27 years ago by Pub. L. 106-65 to r/title-10-ARMED-FORCES · 188 words · no verdicts yet
The Naval Academy has a Superintendent, who runs it day to day and is picked by the President for at least a three-year term. Before taking the job, the officer must agree to retire once the term ends, unless that retirement rule is waived. If a Superintendent leaves early, the Navy Secretary must tell Congress why.
(a) There is a Superintendent of the United States Naval Academy, and the Academy's day-to-day running is under that Superintendent's authority.
(b) The President details (assigns) an officer* to serve as Superintendent. Before taking the position, that officer must agree that once their time as Superintendent ends, they will retire under section 8371(a) of this title, unless that retirement requirement is waived under section 8371(b).
(c) An officer detailed as Superintendent must serve at least three years in that role. If a Superintendent is reassigned, retires, or otherwise leaves the position (for any reason other than death) before completing three years, the Secretary of the Navy must notify Congress that this happened, along with a written explanation of why the officer didn't complete three years in the position.
There is a Superintendent of the United States Naval Academy. The immediate governance of the Naval Academy is under the Superintendent.
The Superintendent shall be detailed to that position by the President. As a condition for detail to that position, an officer* shall acknowledge that upon termination of that detail the officer shall be retired pursuant to section 8371(a) of this title, unless such retirement is waived under section 8371(b) of this title.
An officer who is detailed to the position of Superintendent shall be so detailed for a period of not less than three years. In any case in which an officer serving as Superintendent is reassigned or retires before having completed three years service as Superintendent, or otherwise leaves that position (other than due to death) without having completed three years service in that position, the Secretary of the Navy shall submit to Congress notice that such officer left the position of Superintendent without having completed three years service in that position, together with a statement of the reasons why that officer did not complete three years service in that position.
