High Court Upholds Levy Court-Martial
The Supreme Court ruled 5 to 3 that the court-martial of former Army Captain Howard B. Levy was proper for urging black enlisted men not to fight in Vietnam. The decision upheld the general article of the Uniform Code of Military Justice as a valid restriction on conduct unbecoming an officer. Justice Rehnquist wrote the majority opinion, noting the military’s unique needs permit different constitutional applications, while Justice Stewart dissented, criticizing the vagueness of the statute.
