"US military members have been and will continue to be prosecuted for prostitution for violating existing orders and regulations. What the Pentagon really wants to control is the behavior of contractors and US civilians employed by the military. Contractors and civilians are not subject to military curfews or military law, and local authorities have little interest in these cases. "

"In 2005, a new Article 134 will come out that will make solicitation for prostitution punishable by a dishonorable discharge and up to one year in prison."

So basically, the military was being forced to let the "act of procurring sexual services" slide up until last year when all branches adopted a zero tolerence policy. This seemed to be mostly in lieu of incidents occurring in Korea. In conclusion in DoD terms, "all disorders and neglects to the prejudice of good order and discipline in the armed forces, all conduct of a nature to bring discredit upon the armed forces, and crimes and offenses not capital, of which persons subject to this chapter may be guilty, shall be taken cognizance of by a general, special, or summary court-martial, according to the nature and degree of the offense, and shall be punished at the discretion of that court.”

Of course, it seems, everything often times is based on perception in a military environment, whether right or wrong.

Roadclosed, apologies if I misread your statement. Long day at work.
