* Prior to arraignment, a minor change was made to the Specification of Charge III.
“Missouri” was deleted and replaced with “Illinois.” The court-martial order (CMO)
and report of result of trial, however, do not reflect the change. We order promulgation
of a corrected CMO to accurately reflect the Specification of Charge III.
