Officers and Seamen interned abroad.—A portion of the time spent by officers and seamen interned abroad between the 4th August, 1914, and the 31st December, 1920 (inclusive), will be accepted in lieu of a portion of the qualifying sea service required to qualify them for examination for a certificate of competency.
