Do you remember the good old days, when the Pentagon followed American law?
They are right. The military is not subject to state laws. The military is under Federal civilian control they don’t answer to any one or all of the 50 strates. There is no Federal law against abortion and the UCMJ is also silent on the issue. Therefore the military it’s members, it’s command and it’s Federal property will not and cannot be told by the states to do anything. Federal bases are independent of the state or even the country they are in. Would someone argue that an American base in Korea or Germany is German property and under German law? No that’s ridiculous the same applies to Fort Hood in Texas it is not Texas soil it is US Federal soil the same as Federal soil in Korea or Germany. Same for US Embassy or consulates they all are US soil and full and only subject to USC code and the UCMJ.
