the second year at the Naval Academy and continuing until the indebtedness is liquidated. By thrift during the progress of the 4-year course at the Naval Academy, it is still possible for midshipmen to accumulate a modest surplus of funds, to aid in the purchase of graduation outfit and equipment upon being commissioned in any of the armed services. The amount of this surplus is seriously reduced due to repayment of the entrance credit and is further dependent upon the degree of thriftiness which the individual exercises in expending for optional and incidental items. Any midshipman desiring to do so may repay this $600 entrance credit from personal funds immediately after appointment as midshipman. Midshipmen who are involuntarily separated from the Naval Academy prior to repayment of the entrance credit, are required to turn in all articles of uniform and equipment deemed suitable for reissue, to an amount sufficient to liquidate the indebtedness. If reclaimed articles are insufficient to cover the indebtedness, the remainder of the debt is canceled. Midshipmen applying for voluntary separation for their own convenience are required to repay in full the amount of indebtedness prior to such separation and here also articles acceptable for reissue may be turned in toward repayment of indebtedness.

§ 710.66 Mileage allowance. Upon being admitted to the Naval Academy, midshipmen receive the travel and transportation allowances prescribed in paragraph 5001, Joint Travel Regulations. A mileage allowance of 6 cents per mile is payable for all authorized travel within the United States. A monetary allowance of 5 cents per mile is payable for all authorized land travel outside the United States. In addition, reimbursement will be made for the actual cost of passage fares on commercial vessels if sea travel is involved and provided no Government transportation is available. In the event travel originates outside the United States, candidates must contact the nearest naval activity for information as to the availability of Government transportation before endeavoring to procure commercial transportation. The money to which entitled is credited to their accounts after they have actually become midshipmen. This money usually is re

§ 710.67 Available accommodations for candidates taking formal physical examination. Candidates are usually sworn in as midshipmen on the day they are accepted for admission, i. e., the date of reporting at the Naval Academy as designated in the authorization to report issued by the Bureau of Naval Personnel. Due to limited living accommodations in the city of Annapolis candidates are urged to time their arrival at Annapolis to coincide as closely as possible with the reporting date, keeping in mind, however, that transportation facilities between Washington and Baltimore and Annapolis are not unlimited. Those arriving in Annapolis a day or two prior to actual reporting date may take advantage of berthing and messing facilities made available in Bancroft Hall, the midshipmen's dormitory. The cost for bed and meals per day is equal to the cost of a midshipman's daily ration allowance.

§ 710.68 Members of the Armed Forces. Candidates admitted as midshipmen who are members of any branch of the Armed Forces, including U. S. Coast Guard, will be required to terminate their appointments or enlistments in those services upon their admission as a midshipman at the U. S. Naval Academy.
