Medical and hospital treatment will when necessary, be provided at the expense of the Government for candidates receiving instruction at a camp during the period of their attendance thereat and candidates injured in line of duty while en route to or from a camp of instruction. Such candidates will also receive transportation to their homes and, where necessary, further medical treatment after arrival thereat. (See 45 Stat. 461; 10 U.S.C. 451.) Upon the termination of camp, a candidate officially undergoing hospital treatment because of injury incurred in line of duty is entitled to a continuation of such hospital treatment, including subsistence, at Government expense, until in the opinion of the physician in attendance the disability resulting from such injury cannot be materially improved by further hospital treatment, and transportation to his home at Government expense when discharged from hospital, and such further medical treatment for such injury as may be reasonably necessary after arrival at his home, and to subsistence during hospitalization. In case a candidate is officially undergoing treatment in hospital because of a disease, or an injury incurred not in line of duty, upon termination of camp he should not be discharged from hospital unless he is physically fit to be transported to his home, but the commanding officer of the hospital should report the case and the attending circumstances to the corps area commander and await his instructions as to disposition of the patient.*+ [Par. 26 (a)-(c)] 41.17 Solicitation of funds.

(b) Candidates will be required to comply with all orders and instructions issued by proper authority and must earnestly and actively pursue the prescribed course of instruction. The rules and regulations of camp will be fully explained to candidates. (c) For military offenses committed by those persons in a civilian status punishment will ordinarily consist of admonition, reprimand, or the deprivation of the privileges enumerated in the 104th article of war (41 Stat. 808; 10 U.S.C. 1576). However, when a candidate, by continued violation of orders or camp regulations, indicates that he is not amenable to discipline, he can and should be dismissed from camp. (d) Precise discipline will be enforced at the camps. The meaning of discipline will be an important part of the instruction. It is espe Page 6 *For statutory and source citations, see note to § 41.1. cially important that candidates learn the methods and the importance of developing discipline in the training and control of soldiers of whatever arm. The salute, bearing, demeanor, and address of instructors and of candidates will be required to meet a high standard of correctness at all times. (e) A neat, soldierly appearance of the candidates must be insisted upon. Equipment must be kept in excellent condition. Order, neatness, and sanitation in quarters and in camp must be maintained. (f) Uniform should be worn by all candidates for the entire period of the camp. Commanding officers may grant permission to wear civilian clothing under exceptional circumstances. Passes for absence over night should not be given unless the circumstances are exceptional.* [Par. 29] 41.19 Relief or withdrawal from camp. Any candidate whose conduct, whose indifference to training, or whose habits or traits of character indicate that with further training he would not attain the qualifications for which he is a candidate may be relieved by the commanding officer from attendance at the camp and recommended for nonreturn to future camps. Any candidate who is compelled by necessity to leave the camp through no fault or misconduct of his own may be permitted by the commanding officer to withdraw without prejudice. All candidates who are relieved from duty or who withdraw prior to the termination of camp will be given a certificate so altered as to show the reasons for noncompletion of the course. The commanding officer will issue the necessary order for the authorized return travel of candidates who withdraw or are relieved prior to the termination of the camp. Candidates who are relieved, withdrawn, or dismissed from camp are entitled to transportation and subsistence, as authorized by Army Regulations. (See §§ 41.26, 41.27.)** [Par. 30] 41.20 Physical training. Physical training will be given in all camps with a view to both the physical development of the candidates and their instruction in physical training methods.*+ [Par. 32 (a)] 41.21 Care of arms, clothing, and equipment. Every candidate will be required to care properly for the arms, clothing, and equipment issued to him and to return them in good order upon demand. The responsibility for the proper care and safe-keeping of Government property will be impressed upon all concerned.* [Par. 42] 41.22 Disposition of clothing and equipment at end of camp. Articles of clothing issued to candidates, other than those from the Regular Army, and equipment issued to all candidates will be turned in at the end of camp to the appropriate camp supply officer.*† [Par. 43 (a) (1)] 41.23 Responsibility for Government property. Any article of clothing, equipment, or other property issued to a candidate and lost, damaged, or destroyed through his carelessness or neglect will be charged against him and reimbursement will be demanded.

Renovated clothing issued will be charged at 50 percent of the value set forth in authorized current price lists.*t [Par. 44 (a)] 41.24 Personal baggage. Every candidate authorized to attend a camp will bring one piece of hand baggage containing the personal articles indicated on the application blank. In the preliminary circulars sent out by corps area commanders candidates will be encouraged to bring musical instruments, athletic uniforms and equipment, and also bathing suits where the camps afford facilities for swimming. Proper provision will be made to protect the private property of candidates against theft or damage by fire or the like and they will be instructed immediately upon arrival at camp that, in order to secure proper protection, their private property which will not be used in camp must be stored in the place provided therefor. Any candidate unwilling to so store his personal belongings will be required to sign a statement releasing the Government of all responsibility in the event of loss in any manner.** [Par. 45] 41.25 Sales of quartermaster and ordnance property to candidates. The amount of quartermaster and ordnance property sold to any one candidate, as authorized in the National Defense Act, is limited to that which is required for his proper equipment. Arms and ammunition will not be sold to candidates. All sales made to candidates will be for cash, at cost price plus 10 percent, and will be paid for at the time of sale.** [Par. 46] 41.26 Transportation. (a) Candidates, other than those from the Regular Army, will be furnished transportation to and from camp by either one of the two methods prescribed in section 47d, National Defense Act (41 Stat. 779, 45 Stat. 251; 10 U. S. C. 442), at the option of the corps area commander. There is no objection to a corps area commander encouraging the use of either one of the above-mentioned methods but in no case will an applicant be refused a transportation request if he does not have sufficient funds to pay his own transportation to camp. (b) The prescribed methods are as follows: (1) Travel allowance at the rate of 5 cents per mile between the candidate's home (or any other place, selected by the candidate, which involves no greater travel) and the camp may be paid after arrival at camp. (2) Transportation from the candidate's home (or nearer point) to the camp may be furnished in kind, and in addition thereto the candidate may be paid a subsistence allowance at the rate of 1 cent per mile. (3) When transportation is furnished by the United States, sleeping accommodations may be furnished. (4) The payment of the travel allowance or the subsistence allowance prescribed in (1) and (2), respectively, for the return journey in advance of the actual performance thereof is authorized.
