Wrongful Fraternization As An Offense Under The Uniform Code Of Military Justice, Margaret A. Mcdevitt

Cleveland State Law Review

In view of the desire of the armed services to continue to prosecute fraternization and continued judicial sanctioning, this Note undertakes an analysis of the fraternization prohibition in order to illustrate the current problems.
