If Ft. Hood soldiers protest Cindy Sheehan while in uniform
They are violating the UCMJ and can be prosecuted.

Get pictures, folks. They CANNOT protest in uniform.

9. Nobody has the authority to offer such a "release".

10. They were release to ATTEND
Any officer giving permission to wear a uniform for such political activities would be prosecuted under DoD Directive 1334.1.
