In the USA, military officers guilty of those crimes are FELONS. What country do YOU live in?

Please cite the military code section which makes fornication a felony? And please quote the US code.

Members of the military voluntarily join that organization. They choose, as adults, to submit themselves to the UCMJ. It's not quite the same as state laws. This is the United States, not Sparta or some other totalitarian society. The civil authority is superior to the military, and civilians do not fall under military law.

Think about it. The UCMJ also prohibits disobeying the orders of your superiors. Should we take that into account when considering laws against disobeying your office manager or shop foreman?

As an idle aside, do you realize that the UCMJ sodomy prohibition is currently being challenged in court (it's at the DC Court of Appeals)? The only reason I bring that up is to wonder whether your position will change in the event that its overturned, or if instead you merely use that as a crux to support an otherwise weak argument?
