Sec. 755.2  Scope.

    This chapter provides for assessments against the pay of members of 
the naval service in satisfaction of claims for property damage caused 
under certain circumstances. Claims for damage, loss, or destruction of 
privately owned property caused by a person or persons in the naval 
service, are payable under Article 139, UCMJ, only if such damage, loss, 
or destruction is caused by riotous conduct, willful conduct, or acts 
showing such reckless or wanton disregard of the property rights of 
others that willful damage or destruction is implied. Acts of the type 
punishable under Article 109, UCMJ, are cognizable under Article 139, 
UCMJ. Charges against pay under these regulations shall be made only 
against the pay of persons shown to have been principal offenders or 
accessories.
