The jag office As it is commonly called by the soldiers is divided into three sections or tranches the Legal assistance Section the military Justice ranch which aids commanders in judicial processing under the uniform code of military jus Tice and the International affairs Section which is responsible for cases involving theato status of forces agree 3rd inf div staff judge advocate is maj. Thomas , and his Deputy is Cap t. Michael i. Spak who also head the military Justice Section. Spak in a recent interview outlined some of the most com Mon problems facing Marn Menand other soldiers in Europe and How these soldiers can be helped by the Legal assistance Section. The encyclopedia Case is the most common Here he noted. Soldiers contract for a yearly supplemental edition to an encyclopedia and the set of encyclopedias is thrown in for free. A 20-year contract for the supplement is signed at a Cost of $20 per year and then the sol Dier discovers that the full amount for the supplements or$400, is due immediately he it turns out Spak said the supplement is Only a another big problem facing the Legal assistance lawyers is the signing of German contracts by people who do not read and understand people think they Are getting a car and they wind upsetting a horse. If they would Only take the contract to some one who reads German or bring it into us they would t have an difficulty he said. Another contract problem Spak noted is that a lease for an unfurnished German apartment does not include Light fixtures hot water Heater baseboards curtains shades or bathroom people who carelessly sign these contracts without knowing exactly what they Are getting Are not being cheated. A unfurnished apartment is four Walls and that is what the con tract says he pointed out. Financing is another big head ache for Many soldiers and the Legal assistance who sign for Loans must be aware that a 3 per Cen per month loan is actually 36 per chaplains Nam a for 3 a awards Wiesbaden Germany Spe Cial Safe he has released the names of four chaplains whore the command s nominees for three .

Some troops Windup paying $200 to $300 for a $20 watch Spak problem is that a Riend will cosign a loan for an other Soldier and the Soldier will Ransfer or get discharged an leave the cosigner holding the debt without holding the goods he said. Spak also pointed out that Many soldiers find it hard to Tell a Friend that they won t co sign a loan because in Many in stances it s claimed that the Loanis for an emergency. For emergency situations the army emergency Relief fund or the red Cross will sup ply Loans and you Don t need a cosigner. In fact under certain conditions you Don t even have to repay the loan. So in emergency situations Send your buddy to Are or the red Cross for Finan Cial help he commented. Damage claims for household goods or accidents involving government vehicles also contribute to the workload of the Legal assistance limit their liability to damaged goods to 10 to 30cents per Pound. However an individual May file a claim wit the government for the differ ence Between what they get fro the Carrier and the full value of the property at the time of dam age Spak explained. Deductibles overlooked when income tax time nears Many people will be interested in knowing that the jag offices the place to find solutions to tax problems and a Complete file of Federal and state income tax soldiers claim a straight 10 per cent deduction on their Federal income tax and Don t realize that there Are Man deductible expenses that they have overlooked. For instance the travel expense incurred by a Soldier who brings his wife to Europe is deductible he pointed his list of problems facing most soldiers the lawyer mentioned consumer fraud. Itinerant tailors Are the big Gest problem in this area. A sol Dier will be approached in his company or at a Gasthaus and will order and pay for a new suit. The Soldier soon discovers that the Salesman is not a representative of any clothing com Pany and the contract is Worth less because the Salesman is Long gone he said that All contracts for merchandise should be investigated thoroughly to insure that there is a reputable dealer behind each Purchase.
