IWAKUNI AIR STATION
At Bilecki Law Group, We believe every service member has earned their right to an aggressive defense on their day in court. We specialize in taking the fight to the prosecution and winning cases that others said were unwinnable.
Iwakuni Air Station is a U.S. Marine base established on the southeastern tip of the island of Honshu on Mainland Japan.
The installation plays a vital role in both military and commercial purposes and is jointly governed by both Japanese and American units. It is home to a large Marine garrison but also hosts U.S. Navy and Air Force units.
Like most military bases on Mainland Japan and throughout the Pacific, Iwakuni Air Station has had its fair share of court-martial casualties.
Many of these service members believed they had no other option than to plead guilty to their alleged crimes.
The results of their decisions were traumatic, not just to the service members, but to their families.
- Many of these service members believed they had no other choice but to accept a punitive discharge in their plea deal. In the process, these service members lost tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars’ worth of benefits over the course of their lifetime.
- The families are the real victims of a service member’s court-martial. This is especially true if a service member is taken into custody while the family is still in-country, thousands of miles from home.
- A dishonorable discharge is often the least of a service member’s worries. Many face years if not decades in prison and—in the case of some sex crimes— registration as a sex offender.
