Miranda warning (UCMJ context)

The Miranda warning, in the context of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), is a legal requirement designed to inform service members of their rights when they are detained or questioned by military authorities. It typically includes the right to remain silent and the right to an attorney. This warning ensures that individuals understand their rights and the consequences of speaking to investigators. If these rights are not communicated, any statements made may be inadmissible in court. Essentially, it protects the rights of military personnel during interrogations, similar to civilian legal standards.
