There shall be a chaplain at the Academy, who must be a clergyman, appointed by the President for a term of four years.

The chaplain may be reappointed.

Tallies are for the whole bill as it passed each chamber — often an omnibus covering far more than this provision — not a vote on this section alone. The law that originally enacted this section predates the public laws loaded here, so only later amendments are listed.
