Basic Military Requirements (BMR) Revised Edition | Next

regulations are not punitive articles, but laws under
which the Navy operates. Many exist for your own
protection. Failure to obey any regulation subjects the
offender to charges under article 92, UCMJ (Failure to
obey an order or a regulation).
The first two digits of the article number indicate
the chapter of Navy Regs from which the article is taken.
If the article is self-explanatory, no further explanation
is given; the article will be shown in block quotation
exactly as stated in Navy Regs. Articles that are lengthy
and, in some cases, difficult to interpret, have been
paraphrased (rewritten) to give you a brief overview of
what the article contains. Remember that in Navy Regs,
the words he, his, or him refers to both men and women
Navy Sailors.
