WASHINGTON, June 17 /PRNewswire/ -- This well-known reference for military
law, the Manual for Courts-Martial, is the book now being referenced in daily
news accounts from the recent court-martial trials of the drill instructors at

Purpose of Military Law; the Rules for Courts-Martial; the Military Rules of
Evidence; the Punitive Articles; and Nonjudicial Punishment Procedures. For
