ARMY AR 633-30 PDF

Summary. This is a change to AR 633–30, 6 November 1964. This change implements policies and procedures required by DOD Directive 1325.4, the decision of the U.S. Court of Military Appeals in the case of U.S. v. Allen, 17 MJ 126 (CMA 1984) and the Manual for Courts–Martial, United States, 1984.

Purpose.

This regulation prescribes procedures for the computation of sentences to confinement of persons subject to the Uniform Code of Military Justice serving sentences in the custody of the Department of the Army or Air Force. Such persons are hereinafter referred to as prisoners.

The premature or tardy release of prisoners from confinement results in poor prisoner morale and reflects unfavorably upon the administration of confinement by the Departments of the Army and the Air Force. Further, it is imperative that the essential legal rights of the individual be protected by insuring that he is not held beyond the proper release date. Accordingly, commanding officers of confinement facilities will exercise close and continuing command supervision over the computation of sentence expiration dates.

Questions regarding clarification of computation of expiration date for Army prisoners will be forwarded to the Office of the Provost Marshal General (DAPM), 2800 Army Pentagon, Washington, DC 20310–2800. Questions regarding clarification of computation for Air Force prisoners will be forwarded to AFSFC/FC, 1517 Billy Mitchell Blvd., JBSA Lackland, TX 78236–0119.
