Third Paper: Military Law. (100 Marks; Two Hours; First Day.)

[Manual of Military Law and King’s Regulations allowed for use at this examination; latest editions, not amendments.]

This paper will deal with such questions as might have to be decided by a Lieutenant. A candidate will not, for instance, be required to decide points which he would, in the ordinary course, refer to higher authority; but he will be required to say what that higher authority is, and where his own responsibility begins and ends.

The situations on which questions will be based are those which may arise—

1. In New Zealand on mobilization being ordered;
2. En route to an oversea base;
3. In the theatre of operations with a regular unit.

Part II.—Oral Examination.

MEDICAL.

(a.) 100 marks.—The work of a Medical Officer attached to an infantry unit in the field. This will include such a knowledge of the direction and action of a battalion in the field as is necessary for the intelligent carrying-out of medical duties in connection therewith.

(b.) 100 marks.—As for (a), with special reference to sanitation and other duties in camp and on the line of march.

(c.) 100 marks.—Map-reading. The candidate should be able to identify localities, to set a map, and be able to judge of the probable nature of a locality. In drafting orders and instructions he should be able to refer to the map in the ordinary way.

CONDITIONS OF QUALIFICATION.

2. Subject to the above conditions, a candidate who fails in more than one paper or subhead of Certificate A or B must undergo re-examination in all papers or in all the subheads.

3. A candidate who fails in only one paper or subhead of Part I or Part II will be required at a subsequent examination to qualify only in the paper or subject in which he failed. In all cases of re-examination 0·5 will be the qualifying minimum.

4. A candidate who presents himself for examination in either Part I or Part II of Certificate A or B, and fails to attend the examination on any paper or subhead, will be deemed to have failed in that paper or subhead.
