(a) Upon the recommendation of the governor of the State or
Territory concerned, the Secretary of the Army, under regulations
to be prescribed by him and without cost to the United States for
transportation, may lend obsolete ordnance and ordnance stores to
State and Territorial educational institutions and to State
soldiers and sailors' orphans' homes, for drill and instruction.
However, no loan may be made under this subsection to an

property and, except for property properly expended, for its return
when required.
