Section 112.

(b) Upon the disbandment of any unit which has received military property for military use, the officers responsible for such property shall return it to the officer ordered to receive it.
(c) Until such officer responsible for military property or his legal representative receives from the adjutant general notice that the property accounts of such officer have been found correct, the liability of such officer or of his estate for military property shall continue. Upon the death or desertion of an officer responsible for military property his immediate commanding officer shall at once cause such property to be collected, and a correct inventory made by physical count and examination. Such inventory shall be forwarded to the adjutant general, and compensation for any shortage may be recovered as provided in subsection (a) of section one hundred and eleven.
