XVIII. MALLEIN TESTS.—At summer encampments wherethere is contact between animals belonging to the Regular Army,the National Guard, and those privately owned or contracted for,
and the latter have not been mallein-tested before going to camp,or where National Guard animals from one or more States ordifferent localities within a State will be brought into contact,
a quarantine will be established against the non-malleined animals(Par. 14, AR 40-2100). As such quarantine is obviously difficult
to enforce and will undoubtedly work to the detriment of thetraining of the troops affected, it is believed that all such animalsshould be given the mailein test not more than three weeks be-
fore going to camp.At stations where there is a veterinarian of the National Guard
assigned to duty, such test should be administered, by him withoutcharge, but where no such veterinarian is available, the test shouldbe made by a civilian veterinarian at a cost not to exceed 50 centsper animal, which should cover both the administration of themailein and the visit to read the result of the test.
In each case where the test has been given, a certificate will beprepared by the veterinarian substantially as follows:
(Place)
(Date)
I certify that the following described animal, Horse (or Mule),
Sex— , Color,
Height , Name ,
Hoof Markings , , pertaining to
(Right Fore) (Left Pore).
(Designation of
, - . has been given the prescribed maileinOrganization) (State)
treatment and the result, as observed by me on the above date, wassatisfactory.
(Signature)
(Rank, if any)
Registered Veterinarian
Note : The above certificate should accompany all animalstaken to an encampment.Where rented animals are obtained through a contractor, the
contract covering such rentals should provide that the animalsso hired will be mallein-tested at the expense of the contractorprior to the effective date ofl the contract and that each animal sotested will be provided with a certificate similar to that set forthabove and signed by a reputable veterinarian.
Mailein for testing all National Guard animals will be furnishedby the U. S. Property and Disbursing Officer upon requisition.
9 (G. O. 14)
Certificates for use by veterinarians will also be furnished when
requested.
