The Uniform Code of Military Justice is a collection of multiple articles regulating the armed military services in a multitude of subjects. It lists the rights and wrongs of each individual within the military and provides guidance on issues and conflicts within the military. Specifically, the Uniform Code of Military Justice heavily touches on violations of specific articles and the repercussions that occur with the types of conduct that violate the articles. Integrity is a core value, a key aspect, of the Army Values. The integrity of the soldier is held in high regard and is a valuable asset in any field of the military. Twenty-four hours a day, that is, every hour of every day, a soldier should strive for integrity. Having integrity means you are trustworthy, and being trustworthy means your NCO can count on you to always do the right thing. In addition to these topics, there are also other key topics that I will talk about. How did I violate the Uniform Code of Military Justice? How can I prevent further violations in my future under the Uniform Code of Military Justice? Another topic will be: How have I violated the integrity of my character? What can I do to always strive to be a soldier with integrity? And why integrity is so important to me as a soldier in the United States Army. First of all, what exactly is the Uniform Code of Military Justice? The Uniform Code of Military Justice is based on the original 69 Articles of War created by the Second Continental Congress to govern the Continental Army on 3......half of the paper......within the Uniform Code of Justice Military Military justice, like Articles 91 and 92, was created to help keep junior rank individuals within the services in line and to be as professional as possible. Integrity is a core Army value and maintaining my integrity as a Soldier is well considered. Having the personal courage to speak openly about your integrity is also key. I violated Articles 91 and 92, as well as my own Integrity, with my actions regarding the Study Hall, and as a result I caused myself a much bigger problem. My conduct, the way I act professionally, it all reflects on me as a soldier. Overall, what I did was wrong in many different ways. The UCMJ, integrity and even personal reasons should never have allowed this incident to happen. Yet it was, and now I learn from it and move on to be a better soldier and uphold the values ​​of the Army.
