Military Justice refers to the legal system that governs members of the armed forces. It is designed to maintain discipline, order, and the rule of law within military ranks. This system includes specific laws, regulations, and procedures that differ from civilian justice, addressing offenses unique to military service. The Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) is the foundation of military law in the United States. It outlines various offenses, such as desertion and insubordination, and establishes courts-martial to adjudicate serious cases. Military justice aims to ensure accountability while balancing the rights of service members with the needs of military readiness.
