Other soldiers displaying misconduct stress behaviors require medical or surgical treatment for the consequences of their misbehavior. Medical personnel and administrators must recognize these cases and report them to the chain of command."

This article is about torn skin or bruising. For the band see Wounds (band). \n \nSuperficial bullet woundsA wound is type of physical trauma wherein the skin is torn, cut or punctured (an open wound), or where blunt force trauma causes a contusion (a closed wound).\n\nBefore any medical or paramedical evaluation, a wound is considered as minor when:\n\nit is superficial (a "flesh wound"); \nit is away from natural orifices; \nthere is only minor bleeding; \nit was not caused by a tool or an animal. \nAny other wound should be considered as severe. If there is any doubt, a wound should be considered as severe. "Severe" does not necessarily means that it endangers life, but it must at least be seen by a physician. In the case of severe open wounds, there is a risk of blood loss (which could lead to shock), and an increased chance of infection due to bacteria entering a wound that is exposed to air. Due to the risk of infection, wounds should be kept clean, and closed if possible until professional help is available.\n\nDepending on their severity, closed wounds can be just as dangerous as open wounds. An injury to the brain such as a contusion is an extremely dire closed wound, and requires emergency medical attention.\n\nContents [hide]\n1 Types of wound \n1.1 Open \n1.2 Closed \n2 First aid \n2.1 Severe/Major Open Wound \n2.2 If an object is embedded in a wound \n2.3 Major Closed Wounds (hematoma and crushing injuries) \n3 References \n \n\n\n[edit]\nTypes of wound\n \nWound, sewed with four stitches[edit]\nOpen\nOpen wounds can be classified into a number of different types, according to the object that caused the wound. The types of open wound are:\n\nIncisions - caused by a clean, sharp-edged object such as a knife, a razor or a glass splinter. \nLacerations - rough, irregular wounds caused by crushing or ripping forces. \nAbrasions (grazes) - a superficial wound in which the topmost layers of the skin are scraped off, often caused by a sliding fall onto a rough surface. \nPuncture wounds - caused by an object puncturing the skin, such as a nail or needle. \nPenetration wounds - caused by an object such as a knife entering the body. \nGunshot wounds - caused by a bullet or similar projectile driving into or through the body. There may be two wounds, one at the site of entry and one at the site of exit. \nAll stab wounds and gunshot wounds should be considered major wounds.\n\n[edit]\nClosed\nClosed wounds have fewer categories, but are just as dangerous as open wounds. The types of closed wounds are:\n\nContusions - (more commonly known as a bruise) - caused by blunt force trauma that damages tissue under the skin \nHematoma - (also called a blood tumor) - caused by damage to a blood vessel that in turn causes blood to collect under the skin \nCrushing Injuries - caused by a great or extreme amount of force applied over a long period of time. \n[edit]\nFirst aid\nMain article history of wound care. \n\n\n\n[edit]\nSevere/Major Open Wound\nThe priority with major wounds is to prevent further blood loss. Treat the casualty to control the bleeding, prevent shock, and call for help as soon as possible.\n\nEmergency medical services should be called. \nDisposable gloves should be used. The casualty's clothing should be removed to expose the wound. \nGet the casualty to raise the wound above the level of the heart (if the wound is in a limb) and, if there is no object embedded in the wound, apply direct pressure to the area with their own hand. \nHelp the casualty to lie down (on a blanket or carpet to protect them from the cold). If shock is suspected, raise the casualty's legs and support them on a chair or similar. \nA sterile dressing should be applied (or if none is available, an improvised dressing made from a clean towel or cloth). The dressing should be secured with a bandage that is tight enough to maintain pressure on the wound (but not so tight as to impair circulation beyond the wound). \n

Ahem... No.\n\nIt is called assult with a deadly weapon - and drunk or not, it is illegal and not OK.

All military personnel regardless of thier job, have strict rules to live by.  It's called the UCMJ, (Uniform Code of Military Justice).

some states have this law. Basicly what it sums down to is that the violator entered onto a property to strike fear in the defendent.

The same as for arresting a civilian.  You call law enforcement and if you can convince them that a crime was committed and that the servicemember is likely to have committed that crime - then they will conduct the arrest.

The military person needs to check with his/her SJA (Staff Judge Advocate).  They will be able to provide all the information that is required.

An act that violates the law in its self, but is considered legal given the situation. For example, killing someone in self defense. Murder in its self is a crime, but protecting one's life if threatened by bodily harm or injury is legal. So, in short, killing in self defense is a legal crime.

That depends on what has occured.  Has the animal bitten someone?  Is this a repeated offense?  Has the service member been charged with animal cruelty?  Trying to run a shelter?  Trying to establish a breeding business on base?\n\nThe commander can order the service member to do anything that is for the "good of the command".  So, if the commander has determined that the soldier is violating laws/regulations, in danger of violating laws/regulations, creating a health hazard, or has dangerous animals, then the answer is "YES".

Actually, the bigger problem (assuming your'e talking about the US) is the changes made by the Military Commissions Act.\n\nIt retroactively changes the definition of war crime, so that even if a US official did something that was a felony war crime when the committed it, they cannot be prosecuted now.\n\nIt's like making child molestation no longer illegal, and even if you did it while it was illegal, you cannot be prosecuted anymore.

yes..an eye for an eye...each person should be held responsible for their own action and should be punished/rewarded to what he/she has done to others

No Soldiers, according to the book , have a duty to obey any illegal or immoral order or command. Thus no soldier can be compelled to act illegally or immorally. However a claim of an illegal war is defined by the seated government and the juxtaposition of the Geneva Accords & Conventions. As for the chain of command, the proper channels and protocals define proper obligations for tose initiated, like them or not!

The Army conducts a lot of training on this and also a lot of enforcement of domestic violence laws.  We have several seminar classes, NCODPs, OPDs, classes from the base hospitals (which are also the clinics for behavioral health), and programs conducted by the unit chaplains.\n\nWhen an incident does happen, the cases are reffered to a CRC board (Crisis Review Committee) for disposition.  Even with all of the emphasis I gave this as a Troop Commander, and we talked weekly about this in my troop, deployed or not, Domestics still happened.  The CRC recommends treatment or other options and the soldier is ordered to go.  That's one advantage we have over a civilian company.  The other aspect is a domestic assault is an Field Grade ART-15 Offense. The soldier could lose rank, pay, and privledges if punished.  Taking pay was usually a option of last resort for this issue as money was usually part of the problem.\n\nThere are also several other things we do after the incident, which could comprise several pages.  But the bottom line is THIS officer and EVERY OFFICER I have EVER worked with puts this high on their list of things to work on.  I have responded personnally to every domestic incident that occurred while in command.  I also, along with the Squadron Chaplain and even my wife (who has a degree in community health education), would go to the soldier's home and have long sessions withn the soldier and spouse.  We also had a good program called "building strong and ready families" in the Regiment where couples, especially young couples, could go and learn coping skills, constructive arguing, non-violent conflict resolution, and other skills.

Section 340.5 of the Code of Civil Procedures states that an action must be commenced within 3 years of the injury or 1 year of when a person reasonably should have or did discover the injury, whichever is first, unless "(1) upon proof of fraud, (2) intentional concealment, or (3) the presence of a foreign body, which has no therapeutic or diagnostic purpose or effect, in the person of the injured person." Further, if the injured party was a minor, they have 3 years or if under 6 at the time of injury, until 8 or three years, whichever is longer. This limitation does not begin if the parents and/or insurer commit fraud or collude to fail to bring an action on the minor's behalf.

I don't think there is a specific law, yet.  In this state it's anyone's guess anymore.  There will probably be a law next week, at our expense of course.  \n\nSeriously, I don't think you need to worry about anything "reasonable."  Don't try to pass off a butterfly knife as a belt buckle knife though.
