    11 Transfer Resignation Attachment to other Corps How arranged 32. —In order to transfer from one regimenl to another, it is necessary for an Officer to resign his commission first; he is then gazetted to the new corps after the usual application has been made through the Commanding Officer. The previous service will count for promotion, except in the case of a combatant Officer who becomes a Medical Officer. 33. An Officer by giving 14 days' notice in writing of his intention to quit his corps, can at the end of that period claim his discharge, but usually it is best for an efficient Officer to resign at the end of the Volunteer year, as otherwise his regiment will lose the Capitation Grant which he has earned for that year. 34m—Occasionally an Officer has to leave a district for a short period; he can then get attached to and do his drills with another regiment. 35. -Application must be made by an Officer through his Adjutant, who communicates with the Adjutant of the corps to which he wishes to be attached. If all his drills for one year are done with another regiment, they count towards efficiency, and a certificate of them must be obtained from the Adjutant of the corps to which he is attached. Section II. CAPITATION GRANT AND CONDITIONS OF EFFICIENCY AND PROFICIENCY. (Jonditions ;>(>. —Each Officer must attend nine drills annually— of Efficiency tnree battalion and the rest company drills. Annua] If absent from the Inspection he has to do two Inspection more company drills. Leave of absence must be also obtained, and in case of sickness a medical certificate must be forwarded.
