There are two separate jurisdictions: one for civilians and another, under the UCMJ, for the military. Different rules and procedures for each.
And they all operate WITHIN the Constitution. Which you should know if you ever took the time to read it. But you haven't, nor does it seem that you ever will.

You still don't get it.
McCain's father's active duty status with the U.S. military defined his jurisdiction. Therefore McCain was a citizen by birth and possibly even a "natural born" citizen as well. Military officers remain subject to the full jurisdiction of the U.S. military and under the direct control of the U.S. chain of command regardless of where they go.
