# 10 U.S.C. § 8135 - Regular Marine Corps: order of filling vacancies in grade of second lieutenant
## Text
Vacancies on the active-duty list of the Marine Corps in the grade of second lieutenant shall be filled, so far as practicable, first, from members of the graduating class of the Naval Academy; second, from meritorious noncommissioned officers of the Regular Marine Corps; and third, from other persons.
(Aug. 10, 1956, ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 324, § 5585; Pub. L. 96513, title V, § 503(29), Dec. 12, 1980, 94 Stat. 2913; renumbered § 8135, Pub. L. 115232, div. A, title VIII, § 807(b)(4), Aug. 13, 2018, 132 Stat. 1834.)
## Notes
Historical and Revision Notes Revised sectionSource (U.S. Code)Source (Statutes at Large) 558534 U.S.C. 634.Mar. 3, 1899, ch. 413, § 19, 30 Stat. 1008; Mar. 3, 1903, ch. 1010, 32 Stat. 1198 (1st proviso in 5th par., 48th word to end of proviso). The words “from other persons” are substituted for the words “from civil life” because 34 U.S.C. 1020e authorizes the appointment of graduates of the NROTC program as well as of other persons in civil life. Such graduates are, properly, persons in “civil life”, since they are members of the Naval Reserve who are not on active duty. However, since the status of members of the NROTC is not always clear, the statement of the class is expanded.
Editorial Notes
Amendments2018—Pub. L. 115232 renumbered section 5585 of this title as this section. 1980—Pub. L. 96513 substituted “active-duty list” for “active list”.
