INTRODUCTION The virtual institutionalization of military service since World War II, as a normal part of the life of every young American, a fact which shows little sign of change in the near future, has made military law, once the exclusive domain of a handful of specialists in the Judge Advocate General's Corps, a matter of interest to every lawyer in the United States, and an area of special concern to that large growing pool of young lawyers facing active duty or reserve training at home. Within the ambit of this field, a neglected but significant area of inquiry is the legal duty owed to a subordinate by his superiors. Stated from another viewpoint, what pro- tection does a subordinate have against the acts of superiors, and what are the acts which the law protects him against? From time to time in recent years, we can see from the daily press that superior officers have been criticized and even court-martialed for violation of the rights of their subordinates.
