One of the consequences of a bouncing a check in the Marine Corps?

The consequences can vary from a page 11 entry to special court-martial and a BCD. Depends on how many bad checks were written, and how much money was involved. Usually, first offense or two will be overlooked if you immediately make good on a check bounced due to some oversight. If it becomes a pattern, or if the amounts of money involved are large, there will be swift and stiff penalties ranging from NJP with loss of rank, restriction, forfieture of pay extra duty etc to special or general court-martial which could result in significant brig time as well as a punitive discharge (Bad Conduct or Dishonorable) which is also a federal conviction.

Don't bounce checks if your in the military.

What issue or concern do you think poses the greatest challenge to the future of United States or the world?

Economic collapse due to failure of current monetary systems as well as gross national indebtedness largely due to the weight of entitlements and various other types of social programs. We are seeing this throughout Europe with the exception of Germany. America is well on it's way. This phenominon has the potential to vastly weaken national economies worldwide.

How long can a navy instruction stay effective?

Navy instructions are in effect until cancelled. Some instructions currently remain in effect, unchanged, from the 1960s and perhaps even earlier.

Directives intended for a short duration are written as "Notices" instead of instructions. These have an expiration date on them, or else automatically expire after one year and must be renewed to remain in effect. A common example of a Navy notice is the 5050 or 5060, which provide detailed direction for the execution of one-time events such as changes of command or visits by distinguished persons.

Does the US Navy recognize children born out of wedlock?
