U.S. Code as of: 01/19/04
Section 875. Art. 75. Restoration

      (a) Under such regulations as the President may prescribe, all
    rights, privileges, and property affected by an executed part of a
    court-martial sentence which has been set aside or disapproved,
    except an executed dismissal or discharge, shall be restored unless
    a new trial or rehearing is ordered and such executed part is
    included in a sentence imposed upon the new trial or rehearing.
      (b) If a previously executed sentence of dishonorable or
    bad-conduct discharge is not imposed on a new trial, the Secretary
    concerned shall substitute therefor a form of discharge authorized
    for administrative issuance unless the accused is to serve out the
    remainder of his enlistment.
      (c) If a previously executed sentence of dismissal is not imposed
    on a new trial, the Secretary concerned shall substitute therefor a
    form of discharge authorized for administrative issue, and the
    commissioned officer dismissed by that sentence may be reappointed
    by the President alone to such commissioned grade and with such
    rank as in the opinion of the President that former officer would
    have attained had he not been dismissed. The reappointment of such
    a former officer shall be without regard to the existence of a
    vacancy and shall affect the promotion status of other officers
    only insofar as the President may direct. All time between the
    dismissal and the reappointment shall be considered as actual
    service for all purposes, including the right to pay and
    allowances.
