ANNEX D

REGULATORY GUIDANCE ON DISSIDENCE

The following general guidelines are extracted from regulations and directives as indicated:

1. Possession and Distribution of Political Materials:

a. United States Armed Forces personnel will not distribute pamphlets, newspapers, magazines, handbills, flyers, or other similar material on any military installation except through regularly established and approved distribution outlets (c below) unless approval is first obtained from the appropriate installation commander and responsible community leader (para 23, USAREUR Reg 632–10).

b. The following materials are exempted from the prohibitions and requirements of paragraph 1a (para 23, USAREUR Reg 632–10).

(1) Advertising or promotional materials of licensed solicitors (when permitted in accordance with para 8a (1), Annex A, USAREUR Reg 210-70 or other applicable directives), military banking facilities, and credit unions.

(2) Materials produced or selected for distribution by the US Army or other US government organizations, nonappropriated fund activities, concessionaires, and private associations recognized in accordance with AR 230–1. (3) Materials distributed to students and prospective students by educational institutions offering training through Army education centers.

(4) Materials accepted as gifts for distribution to individuals in accordance with AR 1–101.

(5) Materials delivered to individual recipients by US or foreign postal facilities as long as those materials remain solely in the possession and control of the postal addressee.

c. Regularly established and approved distribution outlets are libraries, unit dayrooms, service clubs, chapels, Stars and Stripes newsstands, EES facilities, and commissaries, provided that procedure established for distribution in such outlets have been followed and that no request for the approval of any responsible community leader or installation commander for anv type of distribution has been previously denied (para 23, USAREUR Reg 632–10).

d. Distribution of literature by non-members of US Forces.

(1) Section 89 of the German Criminal Code makes it a crime for persons to undermine the dutiful readiness of a member of the Bundewehr to protect the security of the Federal Republic of Germany. The fourth amendment to the

Criminal Code extends Section 89 by making it a crime to undermine the dutiful readiness of members of a NATO force.

(2) The elements necessary to establish a violation of Section 89 are:

(a) That undermining of the dutiful readiness of a member of the Forces to protect the security of the Forces occurred.

(b) That such undermining was done in a systematic manner.

(c) That the undermining was intentional.

(2) The element of the "undermining the readiness" of the Forces could be established by the statement from competent US authorities that the actions concerned, such as distribution of racially oriented literature of an inflammatory nature advocating disruptive acts, undermines the morale and readiness of US Forces. The element of intent quite likely could be established by nature of such publications. Proof that the act was done in a systematic manner appears to be the most difficult. Any evidence of "systematic distribution" to be furnished by US authorities could be of such nature that the evidence can be made known and the witnesses made available to testify in a public hearing.

(4) Liaison with the proper German authorities should be accomplished through the US Local Liaison Authority for the area concerned (USAREUR Reg 550-56).

e. Publication of "Underground Newspapers," Army Regulation 360-5, provides that personal literary efforts may not be pursued during duty hours or accomplished by the use of Army property. However, the publication of "underground newspapers" by soldiers off-post on their own time and with their own money and equipment is generally protected under the First Amendment's guarantee of freedom of speech and freedom of the press. Unless such a newspaper contains language, the utterance of which is punishable under Federal law (e.g. 10 U.S.C. Sec. 2387 or the UCMJ), authors of an "underground newspaper" may not be disciplined for mere publication. Distribution of such newspapers on post is governed by para 5-5, AR 210-10, and USAREUR Suppl 1 to AR 210-10, dated 14 Dec 71.

2. Attendance at Meetings and Demonstrations.

a. Any gathering for any purpose which interferes with accomplishment of the command's mission or which is detrimental to the loyalty, discipline, or morale of its personnel is undesirable whether off-post or on-post. Commanders will prohibit gatherings where objectives are incompatible with this command's mission. If they are to be held on post and, should such meetings be held offpost, will take whatever legally permissible measures are necessary to discourage attendance by personnel of their commands. Participation by Army personnel, in or out of uniform, in public demonstrations in the Federal Republic of Germany is prohibited. Any encouragement, written or oral, for servicemen to participate in unauthorized public gatherings is a disservice to this command. (USAREUR letter AEACG, dated 4 August 1970, subject: Demonstrations and Public Gatherings by USAREUR personnel).

b. Meetings on Military Installations. Personnel will not participate in, hold, or cause to be held any assembly, gathering, or meeting on a military installation unless (1), (2), or (3) below applies:

(1) It is official in nature, i.e., held or sponsored by an agency or instrumentality of the US Government.

(2) It is held or sponsored by an officially recognized private association within the meaning of paragraph 1-3f, AR 230–1.

(3) It is specifically approved in advance by the responsible USAREUR community leader (USAREUR Reg 10-20) or his authorized designee or, outside FRG or in Berlin, by the appropriate installation commander (para 26, USAREUR Reg 632-10).

c. Off-Post Demonstrations by Soldiers. AR 600-200 and 600-21 prohibit members of the Army from participating in off-post demonstrations when they are in uniform or on duty or in the Federal Republic of Germany or when their activities constitute a breach of law and order or when violence is likely to result (DA letter AGAM-P(M) (27 May 69) DCSPER-SARD, dated 28 May 1969. subject: Guidance on Dissent).

(Remainder omitted as irrelevant.)
