use, or funds of the state or of the United States, shall execute and
deliver to the adjutant general a bond, with sureties to be approved
by the adjutant general, and payable to the state, in such amount as
fixed by the adjutant general, conditioned for the proper care, use,
and return in good order, wear, use and unavoidable loss and damage
excepted, of all such state and United States property, and the
proper care and faithful disbursement and accounting of all those
funds coming into the hands of that officer. However, the adjutant
general, with the approval of the governor, may obtain an adequate
indemnity bond covering all or part of those officers accountable or

all actions upon such bonds. No further payments shall be made under
any provision of this chapter to the accountable officer of any
organization or unit who does not fully and satisfactorily account to
the adjutant general for all moneys theretofore paid to the officer
under any provision of this chapter. Section History: Early Form
