Military Law in a Nutshell

The fifth edition of Military Law in a Nutshell by L. Lynn Hogue has been thoroughly revised and updated. It is intended as an authoritative resource for those seeking a succinct summary of military law and justice. It is designed for use by practicing lawyers seeking a succinct overview of military law, cadets at military academies and students in college R.O.T.C. programs, and members of the Army, Navy, Air Force, or Coast Guard Judge Advocate General's Corps. It should meet the needs of news media reporters and bloggers requiring information and background on military law and justice. Members of the armed services faced with non-judicial punishment, administrative discharge or more serious actions should also find it helpful. New to this edition is a detailed "Guide to Seeking Justice for Former Servicemembers with 'Bad Paper' Discharges." Every effort has been made to account for changes in the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ).
