Discipline, Non-Judicial Punishment, and the Uniform Code of Military Justice

Purpose

This lesson guide is designed to support the local development of Flight Commander Leadership Course materials. Selected facilitators should use this guide as they prepare presentation materials. For more information on how lessons are structured, or how to use them in the course, see the Course Director’s Handbook or online Facilitator Resources.

Scope

In any military organization, it is necessary to admonish certain behavior in order to maintain a certain level of military bearing and discipline. The framework of progressive discipline (from Letters of Counseling to a General Court-Martial) is designed to increase in severity in order to appropriately deal with the severity of a member’s misconduct. It is important to know the available options and what actions are appropriate to deal with the misconduct. As a Flight Commander, you are responsible for maintaining control of your team and reprimanding unacceptable behavior in an appropriate manner. To do this, you must know what the rights of the member are, what actions must be elevated above your level, and within what bounds you are authorized to act. It is also important to know what resources are available not only to you as the flight commander but also to the Airman or Guardian being reprimanded. In this way, your member’s rights are preserved, and the situation can be handled in a reasonable, impartial, and lawful manner.
