Who does the Uniform Code of Military Justice apply to?

  1. Only enlisted personnel

  2. Only officers in command

  3. All members of uniformed services of the United States

  4. Only active duty members

The correct answer is: All members of uniformed services of the United States

The Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) applies to all members of the uniformed services of the United States, which encompasses not only active duty members but also reservists and members of the National Guard when they are on active duty or under federal authority. This code provides a framework for military law and establishes legal procedures, offenses, and punishments applicable to service members, ensuring that they are held accountable for their actions and conduct consistent with military standards. Understanding the scope of the UCMJ is important as it signifies that by being a member of any branch of the uniformed services, individuals are subject to the laws and regulations set forth in the UCMJ, regardless of their rank or status. Consequently, this broader applicability reinforces discipline and order within military ranks.
