Yes it is possible that you can be punished for adultery under UCMJ regardless of being legally separated or not! Only way of being a 100 percent sure this doesn't happen is to wait for any relationship of any kind til the divorce has been finalized and you are single again!

Can a military wife be charged with adultery?
Military wives, or any individuals, can be charged with adultery depending on the laws and regulations of their jurisdiction. However, it ultimately depends on the specific circumstances and legal framework governing adultery in their country or state. Military law, such as the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) in the United States, may have specific regulations related to adultery that could result in charges for military personnel, including their spouses. It is crucial to seek legal advice if facing such charges.
Why wasn't John McCain given a discharge from the Navy after his committing adultery a violation of article 134 of the UCMJ?
Just because you commit an offense under the UCMJ doesn't necessarily mean you will be puinished for it. It's up to the commander's discression if they want to pursue action against the person. Adultery doesn't mean you're automatically put out of the military. He could've received an Article 15 for this incident. That justifies as his punishment. If he had other infractions along with the adultery incident he could've possibly been chaptered out for patterns of misconduct but again it would be up to the commander if he/she wanted to initiate a discharge him.
