BURDEN OF PROOF AND STANDARD OF PROOF As the moving party, the burden of proof is on the Defense by a preponderance of the evidence. RCM 905(c)(1).

An AR 15-6 investigation in which the investigating officer was asked to make frequent updates to Army leadership, including the Director of the Army Staff, the Chief of Staff of the Army, and the Secretary of the Army; 2.
