  Military Law - LoveToKnow 1911
Minor civil offences, when not committed within military lines, or when the person affected by the offence is a civilian, or when it is a case for a jury, or where intricate questions of law may arise, may also be brought before a civil tribunal.
Military law is thus chiefly to be found in the Army Act and the rules of procedure made thereunder, the Militia Acts, the Reserve Forces Acts and the Volunteer Acts, together with certain acts relating to the yeomanry, the Territorial and Reserve Forces Act 1907, and various royal warrants and regulations.
With regard to all civil offences the military law, it is to be understood, is subordinate to the ordinary law, and a civilian aggrieved by a soldier in respect of a criminal offence against his property or person does not forfeit his right to prosecute the soldier as if he were a civilian.

 Long Gray Lines: The Southern Military School Tradition, 1839-1915, by Rod Andrew Jr.. Introduction.
Meanwhile, antebellum southern military schools such as the Citadel and VMI reopened after the war and continued their traditions of military education; southern military preparatory schools became fashionable in the 1880s and 1890s; and fl colleges founded under the Morrill Act of 1890 also adopted military education.
Politically, military school leaders vied for state financial support by emphasizing the egalitarian nature of their institutions and pointing to the large number of "poor boys" whom they provided with the opportunity for a useful education.
Their military programs faced formidable obstacles in the period between Reconstruction and World War I--a relative lack of trained fl ex-military officers to serve on the faculty, limited opportunities in the military for young graduates, and the reluctance of white southerners to allow young fl men to drill and train with rifles.

 James B. Insco, Defense Of Superior Orders Before Military Commissions, 13 Duke J. of Comp. & Int'l L. 389 (2003)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
When a soldier is given an illegal order, the demands of military discipline, which are enforced by legal sanctions, conflict with the necessity to preserve the supremacy of the law by identifying and punishing criminal violators.
Other prescripts of military law, together with the manifest illegality principle, form a consistent doctrine governing the carrying-out and questioning of orders that accommodates the need to maintain military discipline and the supremacy of the law.
This military order addresses the purpose and statute of the commissions, their jurisdiction, make-up of commission personnel, and the procedures afforded to the accused, including general rules of evidence.

The Academy’s daily discipline structure for all cadets follows a military model.  This model makes cadets accountable for all their actions.
They learn both that unwise choices bring undesirable consequences and that wise choices lead to increased authority, responsibility and privilege within the Corps.  The cadet's uniform, his schedule and his work assignments are all prescribed, freeing him to concentrate on his principal task — the development of academic and moral excellence.
Within the military model, development of leadership qualities is stressed.  Its structural hierarchy naturally demands leadership skills.  Within that hierarchy, cadets can earn leadership positions in the Corps and the Crusaders.
