I think it's possible the unusual deference the Supreme Court has shown to the government in military matters could save the sodomy article in the UCMJ. But I agree with you that it's probably a goner.

Notice they're charging Chaplain Yee with adultery? I imagine that article is not long for this world either.

How perfectly barbaric of them! < moral relativism mode off!

Judicial deference is all that has maintained the status quo so far, but that deference has been rooted in homosexual acts being criminal.

The adultery charge against Yee is pretty good evidence that the other charges against him are weak. The feds desperately want a plea bargain.

Somehow I don't think DOD learned its lesson from the way adultery charges against some female USAF lieutenant cost USAF General Ralston a promotion to JCS Chairman.
