In subsection (a), the words "under such regulations as he may prescribe" are omitted, since the Secretary has inherent authority to issue regulations appropriate to exercising his statutory functions. The word "civilians" is substituted for the word "citizenry" to conform to related sections. The word "capable" is omitted as surplusage. The words "regular or reserve" are substituted for the words "of the Regular", since, under section 682 of this title, Reserves may be detailed to duties authorized for Regulars.
