To obtain practical benefits of great value to

military parks, the parks and their approaches
are declared to be national fields for military
maneuvers for the Regular Army or Regular Air
Force and the National Guard or militia of the
States. National military parks shall be opened
for those purposes only in the discretion of the
Secretary, and under such regulations as the
Secretary may prescribe.

In this section, the words ‘‘or Secretary of the Air
Force’’ and ‘‘or Regular Air Force’’ are added because
certain functions, personnel, and property, insofar as
they pertain to the Air Force, were transferred from
the Secretary of the Army and Department of the
Army to the Secretary of the Air Force and Department of the Air Force by Secretary of Defense Transfer
Order Nos. 1, September 26, 1947; 10, April 27, 1948; and

INSTRUCTORS.—The Secretary of the Army or
Secretary of the Air Force, within the limits of

of the year and for such period as the Secretary
of the Army or Secretary of the Air Force may
designate, at the field of military maneuvers,
such portions of the military forces of the
United States as the Secretary of the Army or
Secretary of the Air Force may think best, to
receive military instruction there. The Secretary of the Army of Secretary of the Air Force
may detail instructors from the Regular Army
or Regular Air Force, respectively, for those
forces during their exercises.
(b) REGULATIONS.—The Secretary of the Army
or Secretary of the Air Force may prescribe regulations governing the assembling of the National Guard or militia of the States on the maneuvering grounds.

Stat. 442; July 26, 1947, ch.

Stat. 501.

Section 103303 is substituted for 16 U.S.C. 421 to eliminate obsolete words because there no longer are park
commissioners for the national military parks. The references to the Secretary of the Army are changed to
the Secretary the Interior because the administrative
functions of certain national military parks were
transferred to the Department of the Interior by section 2 of Executive Order No. 6166, June 10, 1933, and
section 1 of Executive Order No. 6228, July 28, 1933, set
out as a note under section 901 of Title 5, Government
Organization and Employees. References to the National Park Service were substituted for references to
the Office of National Parks, Buildings, and Reservations in section 2 of Executive Order No. 6166 because
of the last paragraph under the heading ‘‘OFFICE OF
NATIONAL PARKS, BUILDINGS, AND RESERVATIONS’’ in section 1 of the Act of March 2, 1934 (ch. 38,
48 Stat. 389).

§ 103304. Recovery of land withheld
(a) CIVIL ACTION.—The United States may
bring a civil action in the courts of the United
States against a person to whom land lying
within a national military park has been leased
that refuses to give up possession of the land to
the United States after the termination of the
lease, and after possession has been demanded
for the United States by the park superintendent, or against a person retaining possession of
land lying within the boundary of a national
military park that the person has sold to the
United States for park purposes and received
payment therefor, after possession of the land
has been demanded for the United States by the
park superintendent, to recover possession of
the land withheld. The civil action shall be
