Article 68.

Disorders:

Punishment: Court-martial.

"All officers and non-commissioned officers have power to quell disorders and to order officers who take part in the same into arrest, and other persons into arrest or confinement.

Whosoever, being so ordered:

  1. Refuses to obey.
  2. Draws a weapon.
  3. Otherwise threatens or does violence shall be punished."

This is one instance (except a.w., 67, mutiny) where even a corporal might order a general into arrest.

This is the only instance:

  1. Where anyone other than a commissioned officer can put an officer under arrest.
  2. Where anyone other than an officer can order, arrest or confinement of a soldier except on power given by C.O.
