Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[I]n our opinion, such misconduct, whether committed on or off-base, is of such singular military significance as to inherently satisfy the Relford criteria for measuring service-connected crimes. United States v. DeRonde, 18 U.S.C.M.A. 575 , 40 C.M.R. 287 (1969); United States v. Beeker, [supra].”
