Citation

I think the citation to the statue is incorrect. The UCMJ is codified at 10 U.S.C. 801 et. seq. If I'm not mistaken, can someone please change the cite? Zandar555 (talk) 09:06, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Probably ought to say, "ROTC cadets and midshipmen" and "Academy cadets and midshipmen" instead of just "cadets". After all, 3/5 of the academies have midshipmen, vs. 2/5 having cadets. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.2.62.115 (talk) 12:42, 5 December 2007 (UTC)

• Wrong, three-fifths are CADETS! The Coast Guard Academy designates their students' rank as cadets, not midshipmen.Todd Gallagher (talk) 00:24, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

From an email to Wikimedia:

"The UCMJ was first established in 1950. President Truman was President from 1945 to 1953, which mean he established the UCMJ. President Eisenhower was President from 1953 to 1961 so he could not have established the UCMJ. It underwent a major revision in 1968. President Lyndon B. Johnson was President from 1963 to 1969."

Could someone please check this and fix the article as needed? It's not my area at all. Thanks -- sannse (talk) 18:07, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Housebreaking.

The link to "housebreaking" goes to training household pets. I think you mean to link to a disambiguation page with something like this: http://usmilitary.about.com/library/milinfo/mcm/bl130.htm.

Title 10 or Title 50?

Is the Uniform Code of Military Justice at 10 U.S.C. ch. 47 or 50 U.S.C. ch.22? It looks like it's both. Was it moved? —Markles 21:37, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

• It was moved to Title 10. If you follow the Title 50 links, you'll find that all the UCMJ-related subsections in Title 50 have been repealed. — Dale Arnett (talk) 23:52, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Desertion

AWOL, missing movement, and desertion all link to desertion. These charges are completely different and carry completely different penalties. These links should change and have pages correctly written to show the differences in the charges. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thehotshotpilot (talk • contribs) 05:29, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
