                By the authority vested in me as President by the

                to the Manual for Courts-Martial, United States, 
                prescribed by Executive Order 12473, as amended, it is 
                hereby ordered as follows:

                Section 1. Parts III and IV of the Manual for Courts-

                    (a) Nothing in these amendments shall be construed 
                to make punishable any act done or omitted prior to the 
                effective date of this order that was not punishable 
                when done or omitted.
                    (b) Nothing in these amendments shall be construed

                nonjudicial punishment, restraint, investigation, 
                referral of charges, trial, or other action may proceed 
                in the same manner and with the same effect as if these
