Any commanding officer, when on duty, may fix the necessary limits or bounds to his unit’s parade, armory building, camp, base, post or area. No person shall enter such limits without leave, and said commanding officer at any parade, camp, base, post, or area may refuse to any person entrance to any such military installation, area, or building in which troops may be quartered, or military equipment stored, whenever, in his judgment, the exigencies of the service make it expedient to do so. Whoever intrudes within the limits of any such parade, camp, base, area, armory or building in which troops are quartered, after being forbidden entrance therein, may be ejected forcibly if necessary, or may be confined under guard as provided for in Section 33-1-11. Whoever resists a sentry or any authorized member of the Mississippi National Guard endeavoring to exclude them from such limits or building, or who resists arrest by the military authorities within such limits or building shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and on conviction thereof shall be punished by a fine not less than Ten Dollars ($10.00) and not more than One Hundred Dollars ($100.00), or by imprisonment not to exceed sixty (60) days, or by both fine and imprisonment.
