Sec. 78. Whenever the sentence of a general or special courts-martial is or includes imprisonment in a county jail, or in a State penal institution, and such sentence has been approved by the officer ordering such court, The Adjutant General shall issue a warrant of commitment, directed to the sheriff of the county wherein the defendant resides, who shall forthwith take the body of such defendant, convey him or her to the county jail or State penal institution mentioned in said warrant and make return thereof to The Adjutant General.
All such warrants of commitment shall be accompanied by a copy of the finding of the court, as approved by the officer ordering the same, certified as a true copy by The Adjutant General, and the same shall be sufficient authority to the sheriff of the county or the warden of the penitentiary to imprison the convicted person.
If the sentence is or includes imprisonment in a military guardhouse, such sentence shall be executed by order of the officer approving such sentence.
