A conviction by general court-martial of any military offense for which an accused received a sentence greater than one year of confinement or a conviction by a general court-martial of any offense that, at the time the offense was committed, carries a maximum term of confinement of three years or greater as set forth under 10 U.S.C. sec. 877 to 10 U.S.C. sec. 934, as amended, or pursuant to an executive order, is a felony offense. Except for convictions by a summary court-martial, all other military offenses are misdemeanors. Any conviction by a special court-martial is a misdemeanor. Any conviction by a summary court-martial is not a criminal conviction.
