Keep this uppermost in your mind:
warring on the several States of the Union
is defined as "treason" in the U.S.
Constitution, and the penalty for treason
is death, per Act of Congress.

>Inmate labor does not interfere with the installation's operation and mission.

>existing in-house or contractor work force. The Army does not pay direct labor
>costs for inmate labor but does incur equipment, materials, supplies,
>transportation, and program administration costs to use inmate labor.

>Services provided by inmates are defined by 18 USC 4125(a) and include
>preservation and maintenance of grounds and facilities; construction, repair and

>presence or absence in an assigned work area.

>Installation inmate labor programs are established via a memorandum of agreement
>(MOA) between the installation and the local correctional facility. The
>installation also develops an inmate labor plan governing operation of inmate
>labor details on the installation. The MOA and inmate labor plan are forwarded

>Section 1065 of the FY 95 Defense Authorization Act allows the Army to conduct a
