"The Book"?

Can anyone enlighten me as to why a section of this article is titled, "The Book"? Thank you in advance, Lindenfall (talk) 16:43, 17 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

UCMJ punishment for espionage

It appears that espionage in the US during war no longer carries a mandatory death sentence. See https://uscode.house.gov/view.xhtml?req=granuleid:USC-prelim-title10-section903&num=0&edition=prelim:

016-Pub. L. 114–328, §5414, inserted "or such other punishment as a court-martial or a military commission may direct" after "punished by death".

This is the last paragraph under the "War" subheading of this article. I don't know if this is still UCMJ section 106, or if it has been moved to another section (maybe 103?). In any case, I won't make the edit myself. —Lights and freedom (talk ~ contribs) 20:29, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:NOBACKREF

To whom it may concern, there is too much "espionage" in the headers. I believe there should be less, like in most good articles. But there's not enough time (for me) so it might be a mission for you. InedibleHulk (talk) 01:28, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
