The Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ, 64 Stat. 109, 10 U.S.C. Chapter 47), is the foundation of military law in the United States. The UCMJ applies to all members of the Uniformed services of the United States: the Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, Navy, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Commissioned Corps, and Public Health Service Commissioned Corps. The Coast Guard is administered under Title 14 of the United States Code when not operating as part of the U.S. Navy. However, commissioned members of the NOAA and PHS are only subject to the UCMJ when attached or detailed to a military unit or are militarized by presidential executive order. Members of the military Reserve Components under Title 10 of the United States Code (Army Reserve, Navy Reserve, Air Force Reserve, and Marine Forces Reserve) or Title 14 of the United States Code, Coast Guard Reserve when not operating as part of the U.S. Navy, are subject to the UCMJ if they are either (a) active duty Full-Time Support personnel such as FTS or Active Guard and Reserve (AGR), or (b) traditional part-time reservists performing either (a) full-time active duty for a specific period (i.e., Annual Training, Active Duty for Training, Active Duty for Operational Support, Active Duty Special Work, One Year Recall, Three Year Recall, Canvasser Recruiter, Mobilization, etc.), or (b) performing Inactive Duty (i.e. Inactive Duty Training, Inactive Duty Travel and Training, Unit Training Assembly, Additional Training Periods, Additional Flying Training Periods, Reserve Management Periods, etc., all of which are colloquially known as "drills"). Soldiers and airmen in the National Guard of the United States are subject to the UCMJ only if activated in a Federal capacity under Title 10 by an executive order issued by the President. Otherwise, members of the National Guard of the United States are exempt from the UCMJ. However, under Title 32 orders, National Guard soldiers are still subject to their respective state codes of Military justice. Cadets and midshipmen at the United States Military Academy, United States Naval Academy, United States Air Force Academy, United States Merchant Marine Academy, and United States Coast Guard Academy are also subject to the UCMJ. On the other hand, Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) cadets and midshipmen are by law exempt from the UCMJ (even while on active duty for training such as CTLT, LTC, LDAC, or while attending various training schools such as Airborne School, Air Assault School, Mountain Warfare School, etc.). Members of military auxiliaries such as the Civil Air Patrol and the Coast Guard Auxiliary are not subject to the UCMJ. However, members of the Coast Guard Auxiliary can be called by the Commandant of the Coast Guard into the Temporary Reserve, in which case they become subject to the UCMJ. Retired members of the uniformed services who are entitled to retirement pay are also subject to the UCMJ, as are retired reservists who are receiving hospital care in the VA system.

uniform code military justice Article 92? Q. uniform code military justice Article 92? Asked by Marco - Wed Mar 25 18:53:00 2009 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments Would America's Executive and Legislative branch function better if they were subject to the UCMJ? Q. (Uniformed Code of Military Justice) I think so. Although we might lose alot of congressmen and women to FT. Levenworth and court martial before they figure out what conduct unbecoming means. Purely an opinion question Dealerofdestruction - What are you talking about? I am not talking about American's being held to the UCMJ. I am talking about Congress and the president. I was in the Navy for 10 years I have a good idea what the UCMJ states and under court martial although you are not guilty until proven innocent. You do have some rights just not the complete rigth to be irresponsible in your personal life. IE Congressman Vitter and Bill Clinton.

I wholeheartedly agree Answered by snickerssatifies - Fri Jul 20 04:30:55 2007 Have All Those People Who Voted Against Ron Paul Also Voted Against The U. S. Constitution???
Q. This is why the military supports Ron Paul! This is the U. S. Military oath of enlistment: I, (NAME), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God. Asked by beesting - Fri Mar 7 15:41:28 2008 - - 13 Answers - 0 Comments A. I suspect they haven't read the Constitution, and assume their legislators are following it, and think we are probably making a lot of fuss about nothing. They're wrong, of course, but may not figure that out until someone they know is taken without due process and held without judge or jury under the Patriot Act. Did you know that an oath to support the Constitution goes a lot further than the military and our legislators and President? For example, did you know that in California every attorney takes the following oath: "I solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution of the State of California, and that I will faithfully discharge the duties of an attorney and counselor… [cont.] Answered by DAR - Fri Mar 7 19:28:12 2008 From Yahoo Answer Search: "Uniform Code of Military Justice"  intelligencereport.ning.com el22526 Sun, 12 Jul 2009 02:37:01 GM I, along with others Americans stand with this Major Serving in the US Armed Forces though, There is a clear and present danger this Commissioned Officer is seeking redress of in accordance to the .
