I think you will find that in the military if the following offences are committed in the UK then they must be dealt with by the civil authorities:
treason, murder, manslaughter, treason-felony or rape
persons who are accused of these offences committed in the United Kingdom must be proceeded with by means of a jury trial in the civil courts
