If you are in the military on active service, especially if you are an officer, there is no such thing as "off duty". Crimes committed off duty are normally prosecuted by both the military and civilian authorities.

Rather selectively enforced......

[Lady's Human]

Yes. Far more frequently enlisted soldiers bear more of the brunt of the UCMJ than officers.

Time to reverse that trend, starting, say, now?

[Edwina's Secretary]

I still want to see those responsible for tarnishing the reputation of the US...those who supervised (a civilian term I realize) the abuse of detainnees in Abu Gahriab, et al, held accountable.... really held accountable.....

then I'll worry about a love triangle....and isn't adultery against the officer code... she didn't commit it alone?

(make no mistake...I think she should be tried and pay whatever penalty the jury deems....I just don't think she should get "negative" special treatment anymore than she should get "positive" special treatment.)

Adultery and many, many other things in the same realm are against the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

Also:

Being beyond a 200 mile radius from the appointed place of duty without official leave or a pass

Conduct unbecoming an officer

Conduct prejudicial to good order and discipline

Disobeying a Lawful Order

All of which can be prosecuted without affecting whatever civilian charges she actually gets tried for.

BTW, ES, the personnel in charge of Abu Ghirab have been investigated and punished within the limits of the power of the investigating authority. You're not calling for unconstitutionally re-trying them on the same charges, are you?

"Them that has" always get, don't they?
