lying to an nco
SPC Ensley, Paul S.
A few days ago, I SPC Ensley, was caught lying to SGT Henshaw about, my whereabouts, why I did not contact him before, or when I was leaving, and as well as my reason for hiding that information in the first place. I should not have attempted to withhold that information, and give out false information on where I was, and why I, SPC Ensley, wasn't honest about it when SGT Henshaw asked in the first place. I had no reason to lie, nor did I show any hint of any of the army values that an enlisted military personnel who is a non commissioned officer in training would normally portray to younger, more impressionable soldiers in our unit.
Lying to a non commissioned officer can be punished by UCMJ action due to the following reasons. Article 91: Insubordinate conduct toward a non-commissioned officer (you failed to obey the order in this case the order to contact SGT Henshaw before leaving post and who I was going with) , punished by 1 year confinement, forfeiture of all pay and allowances (willfully disobeying an NCO's order). Article 92: Failure to Obey a Lawful Order (Sgt Henshaw ordered me to tell the truth, and I didn't), punished by dishonorable discharge, 2 years confinement, forfeiture of all pay and allowances (if the situation involved a general order). BCD 6 month confinement, forfeiture of all pay and allowances (for the failure to tell the NCO the truth). Article 107: False Official Statements (told a lie when asked of my whereabouts), punished by 5 years confinement, forfeiture of all pay and allowances . Article 134: Disloyal Statements (prejudicial to the good order and discipline), punished by 3 years confinement, forfeiture of all pay and allowances (statements needed). Article 134: False Swearing (you took an oath and then lied), punished by Dishonorable Discharge, 3 year confinement, forfeiture of all pay and allowances. Article 134: Obstructing Justice (you lied to hide wrongdoing), punished by Dishonorable Discharge,
