In the event a copyright owner grants the Army written or electronically conveyed permission to use copyrighted material for internal command information or morale and welfare purposes, commanders or heads of Army activities will take care to assure that such permission is not abused by improper use of the material. In addition, any use of copyrighted material, for which permission has been obtained, will carry attribution for the source of the material.

This will vary based on the scope of the license and intended use of the copyrighted work.
