I remember during Tet in 68 a pal of mine in the 1/27th ,whom I ran across, told me of a person in his platoon that put on a night gown and offered favors to all and sundry.

Six, Six and a Kick, probably drawing a PTSD disabilty now.

“Adultry is a UCMJ offense too, rarely enforced.”

Actually, it is when it can be proven IOW the rules of evidence in the UCMJ. When it is prosecuted, it's usually to the overwhelming approval of the personnel in the command!

During my career, I saw 1 1Lt; 3 captains; 1 Lt Colonel; 1 Colonel; and a Lieutenant General go down in flames for it!

Maybe, but I think it’s more to not end up putting married couples in jail for engaging in oral sex.

Sodomy is defined in the Manual for Courts-Martial as “unnatural copulation with another person of the same or opposite sex.”

"Person" here means "human person," right? I ask for purely hypothetical reasons, of course...

As suspected, the National Institute for Military Justice is a radical leftist operation.

http://www.nimj.org/documents/NIMJ_Annual_Report%20_2006.pdf

From the site:

NIMJ . . . was able to use unexpected, but timely, opportunities to advance military justice, largely due to the generous funding provided this past year by the(George Soros) Open Society Institute (OSI)

NIMJ drafted and submitted Congressional correspondence opposing the proposed Graham Amendment, which as passed, strips courts of jurisdiction to consider habeas proceedings brought by detainees in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

The list goes on.

these freaks want to bless mixing feces and orgasms

It sounds so romantic when you put it that way.

I've personally prosecuted more than that for adultery. Granted, almost always the affair involves an officer and his/her subordinate, which is the underlying predicate for the prosecution. But, adultery is always one of the specifications charged.

I was the regular victim of a cute little chinese girl in a pair of bikini panties...

That's exactly what Jerry Brown and the homosexuals said in California in the 60s. All they wanted was the privacy in the bedroom, nothing more, and just look what we have now in California............. lots of fruits glorifying homosexuality and openly trying to shove their lifestyle down the publics throat, so to speak.

“The vast majority of heterosexuals engage in sodomy as defined in Article 125 and the Manual for Courts-Martial,” said Kevin Nix, a spokesman for the Servicemembers Legal Defense Network. The organization strongly opposes both “don’t ask, don’t tell” and the sodomy law.

How do they know that "a vast majority of heterosexuals engage in sodomy"? Are they asking? or are the heterosexuals telling?

These freaks want to destroy the US military, and will employ any means available.

That, and some of them enjoy buggery.

Four hour pass in Cu Chi no doubt. To bad the boom-boom rooms got blown away during Tet. They wouldn't let us into Saigon except on a pass thru.

A pal of mine from Texas, in my Squad, after a trip through, "Give Us twenty-five years and they all look like us." Went Asiatic, not hard to do.

“Panel urges ending UCMJ’s sodomy ban”

-because nothing is more important to military readiness, combat effectiveness, power projection and preservation of our Republic than sodomy in the military. Is that about it?

Sickening.

So is cussing in front of minors. The UCMJ is full of mines, and has to be navigated with caution.

Millions of tax dollars a day to treat raw sewage only to make a protected class out of the perverts who swim upstream to play in it at the source.. have these people ever seen the statistics on the diseases that go along with homosexuality?

Like foxes and snakes circling the hen house, the perverts are relentless in their effort to turn the schools, military and everything else into a meat market for perverts to prey on the fresh meat.

I doubt that Nathaniel Frank, a senior research fellow at the Palm Center, a University of California, Santa Barbara, research institute has ever served a day in any military branch.

Therefore, like Obama, he doesn’t know what he is talking about when it comes to military life.

Me, I am a 23 year veteran

A blow for justice.

Article 125 is going down.
