Legal Question in Military Law in Kentucky

Re: In the army and got my girlfriend pregnant?

The answer to your question probably revolves around where the sexual acts occurred. If they occurred on a military reservation, the military rule (I do not know if it is 18; I assume you talked to a JAG officer to get that information) applies.

If it occurred in GA, then the GA rule applies, whatever that is. If it occurred in KY, then the KY rule applies.

Even if not statutory rape, sex with a 17 year old girl could, in some circumstances, be thought of as "conduct unbecoming." However, usually unless there is a parent or guardian raising a fuss, the military has little to no interest in your personal life.

This is a wake up call for you, however. Actions have consequences. If you are in love and wish to commit, then marriage might be an option. If your girl is indeed pregnant, this will secure health care benefits for her and for the child; an important consideration I would think. If she is not pregnant and you do not wish to commit, then some form of contraception would seem to be in order.
