Burton is an unincorporated community in Wetzel County, West Virginia, United States. It was named for George Bartrug, who settled here in 1812. The name difference is due to an apparent misreading of the name by railway officials.

What is military law?

Military law only applies to those in military service but is enforced during war and peace. Military law is a statutory code of rules and articles provided by Congress for the government and discipline of troops. Attorneys represent active-duty military personnel, military reservists, and former military personnel with "veteran" status. Military law cases may involve court-martial proceedings under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, and the re-employment rights of reserve military personnel called to active duty.
