Some of these offences were ones that would have been tried by a civilian court if the man had not been on active service e.g. The CO could inflict minor punishments, with the offender having no right to a court-martial: confinement to camp for up to 14 days extra guard duty reprimand, severe reprimand or admonition. The CO could sanction maximum punishments as follows: detention up to 28 days field punishment up to 28 days forfeit of all pay up to 28 days for drunkenness, a fine up to 10 shillings. Moderately serious offencesįor moderately serious crimes a man could elect to be tried by a District Court-Martial, or be ‘convicted’ and sentenced by his Commanding Officer. ![]() Being confined to barracks and/or losing a day’s pay was a torment too, for men who were eager for rest and amusement. NCOs often gave men extra fatigues or exercise as punishment for small matters. They would be detected and dealt with by the NCOs and officers of a man’s own unit. These crimes included everything from matters of individual presentation such as being unshaven, untidy or losing kit not saluting or addressing superiors correctly dirty or incorrect equipment being late on parade or after curfew, etc. The acts of discipline outlined on this page were defined by the Army Act and the Field Service Regulations. The instances of failure to obey orders are relatively few, and the number of men convicted and suffering from serious punishment was miniscule as a proportion of the whole.

The maintenance of discipline in the army has always been considered a very serious affair. By selecting a partner link you agree to share your data with these sites.".
