INTERNATIONAL AGREEMENTS
Learning Objectives: When you finish this

international agreements are the Status of Forces
Agreement (SOFA), the Geneva Convention, and the
Law of Armed Conflict.

a member of a ship’s company, or you may be assigned
to a duty station overseas. In either case, remember that
you are a guest of the country you are visiting. A small
percentage of people feel because they are members of
the U.S. Navy, local laws don’t apply to them. That is
not true. If you are on leave or liberty in a foreign
country, you must obey the laws of that country.

to protect your rights as much as possible if you are
subjected to criminal trial by foreign courts. To do that,
the United States has entered into an agreement with
several of our allied countries. That agreement is called
the Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA). The SOFA
says, in part, that the host country will give up some of
