Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book amends the Army Act and alters the law relating to the reserve forces. The 1906 amendment set out to resolve the common issue of soldiers being subjected to stigmatising punishments for non-criminal offenses, such as desertion or being Absent Without Leave (AWOL). This book established important legislative changes such as introducing detention as a less severe punishment than imprisonment, enabling soldiers to serve detention either in military custody or in a detention barrack, and giving soldiers the right to earn a remission of their sentence by good conduct. These amendments were significant in moving away from the strict and often harsh punishments of the past.
