SDCL § 33-12-17: Trafficking in property prohibited--Seizure from unauthorized person.

The clothing, arms, military outfits, accouterments, and stores furnished by the State of South Dakota or the United States to the National Guard may not be sold, bartered, exchanged, pledged, or given away, and the possession of any such property by any person not a member of the National Guard is prima facie evidence of such sale, barter, exchange, pledge, or theft. The property may be seized and taken from any person not authorized to keep the property by any soldier, officer, civil or military, of the state. The property shall then be delivered to any officer of the state authorized to receive the property.
