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. AMENDMENTS2018—Pub. L. 115–232 renumbered section 5585 of this title as this section. 1980—Pub. L. 96–513 substituted "active-duty list" for "active list". EFFECTIVE DATE OF 2018 AMENDMENTAmendment by Pub. L. 115–232 effective Feb. 1, 2019, with provision for the coordination of amendments and special rule for certain redesignations, see section 800 of Pub. L. 115–232, set out as a note preceding section 3001 of this title. EFFECTIVE DATE OF 1980 AMENDMENTAmendment by Pub. L. 96–513 effective Sept. 15, 1981, see section 701 of Pub.
