Navy Corrections Flashcards
Discuss the Navy Corrections philosophy
Correctional Philosophy
a. The philosophy of naval corrections is based on recognition of the fact that, whether it be confinement or in some other form, punishment alone is seldom corrective. Confinement is punishment because it denies members their liberty and separates them from their families, friends, and most normal activities. It means loss of status and disapproval of the individual offender by the military society. Confinement sharply limits the prisoners’ privileges, freedom of action, and opportunities for personal satisfaction. More significantly, it also lowers their self-respect.
