Fort Liberty officials updated the post's list of off-limits establishments in August.

The list is based on recommendations by Fort Liberty's Armed Forces Disciplinary Control Board which evaluates places deemed to adversely affect the health, safety, welfare, morale, and discipline of soldiers.

The board considers alleged illegal activity — including prostitution, drug and alcohol abuse, unfair commercial or consumer practices and other undesirable conditions deemed unsafe.

"Armed Forces personnel observed in off-limits establishments are in violation of a lawful order and are subject to apprehension and prosecution for violation of UCMJ," the announcement states.
