2008 Amendments to the Manual for Courts-Martial, 
                United States

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, including chapter 47 of title 10, United

                to the Manual for Courts-Martial, United States, 
                prescribed by Executive Order 12473 of April 13, 1984, 
                as amended, it is hereby ordered as follows:

                Section 1. Parts II and IV of the Manual for Courts- 
                Martial, United States, are amended as described in the 
                Annex attached and made a part of this order.

                Sec. 2. These amendments shall take effect 30 days from 
                the date of this order.

                (a) Nothing in these amendments shall be construed to 
                make punishable any act done or omitted prior to the 
                effective date of this order that was not punishable 
                when done or omitted.

                (b) Nothing in these amendments shall be construed to 
                invalidate any nonjudicial punishment proceedings, 
                restraint, investigation, referral of charges, trial in 
                which arraignment occurred, or other action begun prior 
                to the effective date of this order, and any such 
                nonjudicial punishment, restraint, investigation, 
                referral of charges, trial, or other action may proceed 
                in the same manner and with the same effect as if these 
                amendments had not been prescribed.
