Finis for "The Code"

The CBS television military justice series will not go on. As Task & Purpose observes, there were vexing accuracy issues:

But based on the critical response of military and veterans observers, The Code focused more on how to inaccurately portray service members than the intricacies of the military justice system. Indeed, the series' pilot episode focused on the court-martial of a Navy O-5 who, inexplicably, appeared in the uniform of an O-3.

Among the other problems:

• Non-regulation haircuts
• Erroneous uniforms
• Excessive rank observation
• Protocol violations
• Calling Marines soldiers.
• NOBODY EVER WEARS THEIR F*CKING COVER

Sir, yessir.
