compliance with the National Defense Act or its amendments and such
regulations as prescribed by the secretary of defense, shall receive
an annual allowance for military purposes, in the sum of five dollars

such unit in that period, the allowance shall not be paid for that
period. The semiannual periods shall begin January 1 and July 1.
The allowance shall be paid from the funds appropriated for the

general shall prescribe regulations requiring an itemized statement
of the allowance and governing its expenditure. The allowance shall
