What does military law (UCMJ) apply to?

  1. All civilians in war times

  2. People in the armed forces

  3. International disputes

  4. Corporate entities

The correct answer is: People in the armed forces

Military law, or the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) applies only to individuals serving in the armed forces. This is because military law is a unique set of regulations and laws that apply specifically to members of the military, addressing issues such as discipline, conduct, and the chain of command. While civilians working for the military may be subject to certain regulations, the UCMJ does not apply to them in the same way it does to active duty military personnel. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the application of military law.
