Book Description
Excerpt from Guide to Courts Martial Duty MY object in writing this book is to assist officers in conducting the proceedings of courts martial. I have given details as to the Prosecutor and President regarding the various courts, and it is very essential that the facilities and privileges that the accused is entitled to, both before the assembly of the Court and during the trial, should be understood by all officers. I have confined myself to the procedure of courts martial only. As regards the various offences, see the Army Act sections 4 - 41 Manual of Military Law, pages 371, 372 and 378 - 413. Chapter V of the Manual of Military Law should be read, pages 35 - 54, and the Rules of Procedure, Manual of Military Law, pages 571 - 642. It is advisable, when the Court is sitting, to keep the memoranda before the Court as laid down in the Manual of Military Law, page 703 and when determining the sentence King's Regulations para 583 (xi) may be referred to with advantage.
