The appointment of officers subsequent to the declaration of war up to October, 1917, both for the permanent service and for the temporary increase authorized for the duration of the war, were drawn from the following sources: Graduates of the Naval Academy 6 Former officer of the Marine Corps 1 Former graduate of the Naval Academy 1 Warrant officers and paymaster’s clerks of the Marine Corps 89 Meritorious noncommissioned officers of the Marine Corps 122 Reserve officers and National Naval Volunteers 36 Graduates of military colleges 284 Other civilians with prior military or naval experience or training 136 Other civilians passing the competitive examination held July 10, 1917 86
