    --------------------------------------------------------------------

      In subsection (a), the words "Except as provided by subsections
    (b) and (c) of this section," are added on authority of former
    sections 11 and 12, which are codified in subsections (b) and (c)
    of this section. The words "the commission of an officer" are
    substituted for "all civil commissions for officers of the United
    States" because of the definition of "officer" in section 2104. The
    words "by the President" are coextensive with and substituted for
    "by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the
    Senate, or by the President alone".
      In subsection (b), the words "officer in the civil service or
    uniformed services" are substituted for "officer" because of the
    definition of "officer" in section 2104. The words "direction and"
    are omitted as included within "the control". The words "the
    Secretary of Defense" are added on authority of the Acts of July
    26, 1947, ch. 343, Sec. 305(a), 61 Stat. 508, and Aug. 10, 1949,
    ch. 412, Sec. 12(g), 63 Stat. 591. The words "the Secretary of a
    military department" are substituted for "the Secretary of War, the
    Secretary of the Navy" (appearing in the Act of Mar. 28, 1896)
    because of the definition of "military department" in section 102.
    The title of the Secretary of War was changed to Secretary of the
    Army by the Act of July 26, 1947, ch. 343, Sec. 205, 61 Stat. 501.
    "Secretary of the Air Force" is included on authority of the Act of
    July 26, 1947, ch. 343, Sec. 207(a), (f), 61 Stat. 502. The words
    "Secretary of Commerce" are substituted for "Secretary of Commerce
    and Labor" on authority of the Act of Mar. 4, 1913, ch. 141, Sec.
    1, 37 Stat. 736. The words "under the departmental seal" are
    substituted for "and the departmental seal affixed thereto". The
    words "any laws to the contrary notwithstanding" are omitted as
    unnecessary. The last sentence of section 14 of the Act of Mar. 3,
    1875, is omitted as executed.
      In subsection (c), the words "and shall be" and "any laws to the
    contrary notwithstanding" are omitted as unnecessary.
      Standard changes are made to conform with the definitions
    applicable and the style of this title as outlined in the preface

      In subsection (b), the words "On and after June 26, 1943" are
    omitted as executed, and the word "officer" is omitted as included
    in "employee". The words "Executive agency" are coextensive with
    and substituted for "executive departments or independent
    establishments, including any agency the majority of the stock of
    which is owned by the Government of the United States" because of
    the definition of "Executive agency" in section 105. The words "or
    the Secretary of a military department with respect to an employee
    of his department" are inserted to preserve the application of the
    source law. Before enactment of the National Security Act
    Amendments of 1949 (63 Stat. 578), the Department of the Army, the
    Department of the Navy, and the Department of the Air Force were
    Executive departments. The National Security Act Amendments of 1949
    established the Department of Defense as an Executive Department
    including the Department of the Army, the Department of the Navy,
    and the Department of the Air Force as military departments, not as
    Executive departments. However, the source law for this section,
    which was in effect in 1949, remained applicable to the Secretaries
    of the military departments by virtue of section 12(g) of the
    National Security Act Amendments of 1949 (63 Stat. 591), which is
    set out in the reviser's note for section 301. The words "of the
    Federal Government" and "and to have the same force and effect as
    oaths administered by officers having seals" are omitted as
    unnecessary.
      In subsection (c), the word "Constitution" is omitted because
    "laws", as used in this title, encompasses the Constitution. In
    subsection (c)(1), the words "of the United States" are omitted as
    unnecessary. In subsection (c)(2), the words "an individual
    authorized by local law to administer oaths in the State, District,
    or territory, or possession of the United States where the oath is
    administered" are coextensive with and substituted for "notaries
    public duly appointed in any State, District, or Territory of the
    United States, by clerks and prothonotaries of courts of record of
    any such State, District, or Territory, by the deputies of such
    clerks and prothonotaries, and by all magistrates authorized by the
    laws of or pertaining to any such State, District, or Territory to
    administer oaths".

    applicable and the style of this title as outlined in the preface

    --------------------------------------------------------------------

      In subsection (a), the word "civilian" is omitted as unnecessary
    because of the definition of "employee" in section 2105. The words
    "Executive agency" are coextensive with and substituted for
    "executive departments and independent establishments of the United
    States" because of the definition of "Executive agency" in section
    105. The words "the Secretary of a military department with respect
    to an employee of his department" are inserted to preserve the
    application of the source law. Before enactment of the National
    Security Act Amendments of 1949 (63 Stat. 578), the Department of
    the Army, the Department of the Navy, and the Department of the Air
    Force were Executive departments. The National Security Act
    Amendments of 1949 established the Department of Defense as an
    Executive Department including the Department of the Army, the
    Department of the Navy, and the Department of the Air Force as
    military departments, not as Executive departments. However, the
    source law for this section, which was in effect in 1949, remained
    applicable to the Secretaries of the military departments by virtue
    of section 12(g) of the National Security Act Amendments of 1949
    (63 Stat. 591), which is set out in the reviser's note for section
    301.

      The authority of the President to prescribe rules is added on
    authority of former section 633(1), which is carried into section
    3302.
      In paragraph (1), the word "authority" is substituted for
    "power". The words "or employment" are omitted as included within
    "appointment".
      In paragraph (1)(B), the words "separation during probation" are
    substituted for "of the rejection of any such person after
    probation". The words "rejection . . . after probation" refer to a
    rejection, i.e., separation, after a portion of the probationary
    period has been served but before the end of the probationary
    period. This is so because an individual can be rejected only
    during the probationary period. After he has completed the
    probationary period, he can be removed only under procedures
    governing removals from the competitive service, and removals of
    this nature are covered by paragraph (E).
      Standard changes are made to conform with the definitions
    applicable and the style of this title as outlined in the preface

      The words "Executive department" are substituted for "department"
    as the definition of "department" applicable to this section is
    coextensive with the definition of "Executive department" in
    section 101.
      The words "or military department" are inserted to preserve the

    Security Act Amendments of 1949 (63 Stat. 578), the Department of
    the Army, the Department of the Navy, and the Department of the Air

    source law for this section, which was in effect in 1949, remained

    of section 12(g) of the National Security Act Amendments of 1949
