A. Except when the militia is in actual service in time of war or public danger, no punishment imposed by court martial shall exceed that prescribed for a misdemeanor. Imposition of a punitive discharge or a forfeiture of pay or a fine in addition to confinement shall not be deemed to make the offense a felony.
B. Subject to the limitation in Subsection A of this section and the jurisdictional punishment limitation for a special or a summary court-martial, the Maximum Punishment Chart, Manual for Courts-Martial, United States, 1984, Appendix 12, shall establish the maximum punishment for a specific offense.
