The Corner

Re: Drunk and Resisting The Guard

“Dear Mr. Derbyshire—A couple of minor corrections/addendums to your post

on The Corner the other day from a ‘USMC perspective’: NJP or Captain’s

Mast is an Article 15 hearing, vice Art. 32 (which is akin to a grand jury

proceeding done before referring charges to a General Court-Martial).

“Brig time can’t be awarded at NJP but restriction can.

“Bread and water is still a permitted punishment (and still awarded) in the

Navy.”
