3036(a)
June 28, 1950, ch. 383, §206, 64 Stat. 267.
June 3, 1916, ch. 134, §11 (1st 17 words); restated June 4, 1920, ch. 227, subch. I, §11 (1st 17 words), 41 Stat. 768.
3036(e) 10:559g(b). Aug. 7, 1947, ch. 512, §513(a) (less 5th sentence), (b), 61 Stat. 901.
In subsection (b), all references to the appointment of assistant chiefs are omitted as covered by sections 3037 and 3040 of this title. All references to the grade of brigadier general are omitted, since 10:21f(b) specifies the grade of major general for the offices. 10:559g(a) (4th sentence) is omitted as surplusage, since the appointment is to a permanent grade. 10:559g(a) (6th and 7th sentences) is omitted as executed. 10:559g(a) (last sentence) is omitted, since the revised section applies only to the officers named in subsection (a). The words "except the Judge Advocate General" are inserted for clarity. The eight words before clause (1), and clauses (1) and (2), are substituted for the words "as prescribed in section 559g of this title", in 10:21f(b), and 10:559g(a) (1st sentence). The second sentence is substituted for 10:559g(a) (2d sentence) and 10:21f(b) (1st 15 words). The words "selected and", in 10:21f(b), are omitted as surplusage. The words "arms, or services", in 10:559g(a) are omitted as obsolete, since sections 3063 and 3064 of this title designate the former arms and services as "branches".
In subsection (c), the words "normally holds office" are substituted for the words "shall normally continue in that assignment for a tour of duty". The words "appointment" and "office" are substituted for the words "assignment" and "tour of duty" whenever they are used in that sense.
In subsection (e), the introductory clause is substituted for 10:559g(b) (words before colon of 1st sentence). The words "in a grade above major general" are substituted for the words "of a rank above that of the position for which selections are to be made", since all the positions are in the grade of major general. The word "select" is substituted for the word "appoint", since the filling of the offices is not appointment to an office in the constitutional sense. The word "extensive" is substituted for the word "extended", except where it refers to "extended" active duty, in which case the word "extended" is omitted as surplusage. The words "the name of" are inserted for clarity. The words "appointed in, or assigned to" are substituted for the words "of the", and "in the", before the words "that branch", to conform to sections 3063 and 3064 of this title. The word "regular" is substituted for the word "permanent". The words "each regular or reserve officer" are substituted for the words "of officers of any component of the Army of the United States". The words "these officers" are substituted for the words "among those recommended by such board". The words "This does not affect" are substituted for the words "but this shall in no way prejudice". The words "to be filled", "by it", "other", "which number shall", "to be considered", "and may in addition thereto and", and "in the position concerned" are omitted as surplusage.

3036(d) (last sentence) 10:3036 (note). Oct. 27, 1965, Pub. L. 89–298, §219, 79 Stat. 1089.
The first sentence is restated to clarify that the Secretary concerned is the Secretary of the Army. The word "services" is substituted for "work or services" because it is inclusive. The word "instrumentality" is added for clarity.
Sections 3306 and 3307 of this title, referred to in subsec. (g), were repealed by Pub. L. 96–513, title II, §204, title VII, §701, Dec. 12, 1980, 94 Stat. 2880, 2955, effective Sept. 15, 1981.

Subsec. (b). Pub. L. 115–232, §809(a), substituted "section 7037" for "section 3037" in concluding provisions.
2016—Subsec. (b). Pub. L. 114–328, §502(k)(2), which directed amendment of second sentence of concluding provisions by striking ", and while so serving, has the grade of lieutenant general", was executed by striking out "and, while so serving, has the grade of lieutenant general" after "Army Medical Department" to reflect the probable intent of Congress.
Pub. L. 114–328, §502(k)(1), struck out first sentence of concluding provisions which read as follows: "Each officer covered by the preceding sentence, except the Surgeon General, shall be appointed in the regular grade of major general."
Subsecs. (d) to (g). Pub. L. 114–328, §702(b)(1), struck out par. (1) designation before "Each officer" in subsec. (d), redesignated subsec. (e) as (g), added subsec. (e) designation, redesignated pars. (2) and (3) of subsec. (d) as pars. (1) and (2), respectively, of subsec. (e), and added subsec. (f).
1996—Subsec. (b). Pub. L. 104–106 inserted "may be appointed from officers in any corps of the Army Medical Department and" after "The Surgeon General" in concluding provisions.
Subsec. (d)(3). Pub. L. 104–201 substituted "In this subsection" for "For purposes of this subsection".
1992—Subsec. (d)(3). Pub. L. 102–580 added par. (3).
1987—Subsec. (d). Pub. L. 100–26 designated existing first sentence requiring each officer named in subsec. (a) to perform prescribed duties as par. (1), designated existing second sentence permitting the Chief of Engineers to accept orders to provide services to another department, agency, or governmental instrumentality as par. (2), and substituted "United States or to a State or political subdivision of a State. The Chief of Engineers may provide any part of those services by contract. Services may be provided to a State, or to a political subdivision of a State, only if—
"(A) the work to be undertaken on behalf of non-Federal interests involves Federal assistance and the head of the department or agency providing Federal assistance for the work does not object to the provision of services by the Chief of Engineers; and
"(B) the services are provided on a reimbursable basis." for "United States and, on a reimbursable basis, to a State or political subdivision thereof. Services provided to a State or political subdivision thereof shall be undertaken only on condition that—
"(1) the work to be undertaken on behalf of non-Federal interests involves Federal assistance; and
"(2) the department or agency providing Federal assistance for the work does not object to the provision of services by the Chief of Engineers.[,]
any part of those services by contract."
1986—Subsec. (d). Pub. L. 99–662 substituted "and, on a reimbursable basis, to a State or political subdivision thereof. Services provided to a State or political subdivision thereof shall be undertaken only on condition that—
"(2) the department or agency providing Federal assistance for the work does not object to the provision of services by the Chief of Engineers."
for "and may provide", which resulted in the creation of an incomplete sentence.
1982—Subsec. (d). Pub. L. 97–295 substituted "Secretary of the Army" for "Secretary" and inserted provision that, under the supervision of the Secretary, the Chief of Engineers may accept orders to provide services to another department, agency, or instrumentality of the United States and may provide any part of those services by contract.
1966—Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 89–718 struck out cls. (2) to (8) naming the Chief Signal Officer, Adjutant General, Quartermaster General, Chief of Finance, Chief of Ordnance, Chief Chemical Officer, and Chief of Transportation respectively, and redesignated cls. (9) to (11) as (2) to (4), respectively.
1965—Subsec. (b). Pub. L. 89–288 provided Surgeon General, while so serving, with grade of lieutenant general.

May 5, 1950, ch. 169, §13, 64 Stat. 147.
June 23, 1874, ch. 458, §2, 18 Stat. 244.
In subsection (a), the words "Notwithstanding any other provision of law" and "for such positions" are omitted as surplusage. The last sentence is substituted for 10:61a (last sentence). 10:21h(c) is omitted as covered by 10:61a.
In subsection (b), the words "Hereafter" and "exclusive of the present incumbents" are omitted as surplusage.
In subsection (c), the words "In addition to duties elsewhere prescribed for him by law", in 10:62, are omitted as surplusage. The words "and perform such other duties as may be prescribed by the Secretary of the Army", in 10:62, are omitted as superseded by sections 3012(e) and 3036(d) of this title. Clause (2) is substituted for 10:62a (words after semicolon) and 63. The Act of June 23, 1874, ch. 458, §2 (words before semicolon of 1st sentence, and last sentence), 18 Stat. 244, are not contained in 10:62. They are also omitted from the revised section as superseded by sections 3037(a) and 3211 of this title.
The change corrects an inadvertence. The source statute for section 3036(c) of title 10 (the third sentence of sec. 513(a) of the Officer Personnel Act of 1947, 61 Stat. 901), providing for a 4-year term of office, applied also to the Judge Advocate General and the Assistant Judge Advocate General. As restated in section 3036(c), it now applies only to the officers named in section 3036(b), which excludes the two officers named. For this reason, the effect of the source statute with respect to those officers is added to section 3037(a), relating to their appointment.
2018—Pub. L. 115–232 renumbered section 3037 of this title as this section.
2016—Subsec. (a). Pub. L. 114–328 struck out last two sentences which read as follows: "The Judge Advocate General, while so serving, has the grade of lieutenant general.

2008—Pub. L. 110–181, §543(a)(3)(A), amended section catchline generally, substituting "Deputy" for "Assistant".
Subsec. (a). Pub.
