Zero chance of it being legal (for either of you) - sorry! This would violate various regulations and the UCMJ. Unduly familiar relationship b/n officers and enlisted is prohibited, no exceptions.

Your chances of an upgrade are slim without finding some type of a procedural error. Your chances of success increase with an attorney, which can be expensive, as you are paying for knowledge, experience, and ability to spot issues and write persuasively.

You need to understand that there is no right to serve in the military, and when the military trains a recruit, they spend tens of thousands of taxpayer dollars.

Your question is a bit confusing. If you fail to disclose a preexisting medical condition that you knew about, that would be fraudulent enlistment (misconduct).

If you are on active duty, you are entitled to military legal assistance services. Go see the base legal assistance office to review your case. If you are entitled to the reduced rate, the base legal office will draft a letter on your behalf.

Generally your assertion is correct; however, civil support orders are the most sure way to get paid support during a separation or divorce. Each service has its own rules regarding support to dependents.

Absolutely. The consequences vary - sometimes adultery (a violation of Article 134, UCMJ) is dealt with at Article 15 or through a counseling. Sometimes it is dealt with at court-marital. I imagine your husband has an attorney - it is best he speaks with that attorney. If he doesn't have... View More

This is a state law question - you should go see the base legal assistance office or the base housing office. Generally, you need a letter on official letter head that meets the requirements of state law.

For the active duty component - 24/7, anywhere in the world. For reserves/national guard, the member must be on orders or in a drilling status. There are many nuances with jurisdiction, but those are the basics.

You should contact a family law attorney in the jurisdiction that has control over the timesharing agreement to seek a modification based on changed circumstances.

There is no waiting period - you do, however, have to provide proof of the divorce in a timely fashion to your personnel folks so that they can adjust the dependents.

If it is a federal ticket, yes it will carry points. Generally you can go to magistrate's court and resolve the ticket under state law. I am not aware of the options to avoid points under Texas law.

The age of consent under the UCMJ is 16 years old. However, state law would also apply.

You need to show up to drill, even with medical reasons. If you are not fit to perform your drills, the military medical folks will place you in a not physically qualified status. Not showing up will get you involuntarily separated with a less than Honorable discharge.

You need to speak to a lawyer. Hire a civilian if you cannot find a military defense counsel to assist you. You need to have an advocate communicate with your chain of command and/or draft a strong rebuttal statement if you are not eligible for an adsep board.

A lawyer will be able to identify any procedural issues with the discharge, which are generally the most successful arguments at a discharge review board/board of corrections.
