In comparison with England and various European countries, our military service is but small in number--scarcely twenty-five thousand officers and men forming the United States Army. |
| Last Sentence: |
When any cadet of the United States Military Academy has gone through all its classes and received a regular diploma from the Academic Staff, he may be promted and commissioned as a second lieutenant in any arm or corp of the Army in which there may be a vacancy, and the duties of which he may have been judged competent to perform, and in case there shall not be a vacancy at the time in such arm or corp, he may, at the discretion of the President, be promoted and commissioned in it as an additional second lieutenant, with the usual pay and allowances of a second lieutenant, until a vacancy shall happen. |
