Which type of deduction is NOT imposed by non-judicial punishment?

The correct response indicates that a fine is not a deduction imposed by non-judicial punishment (NJP). Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ), non-judicial punishment is a process that allows commanding officers to administer discipline without resorting to a court-martial. The punishments that can be administered through NJP typically include reductions in rank, extra duties, and confinement to certain limits.

A fine, in the context of military punishment, refers to a monetary penalty, which is not a standard form of punishment that can be levied through non-judicial procedures. Instead, NJP focuses on forms of discipline that aim to correct behavior rather than impose financial penalties, thus allowing for rehabilitation rather than solely punitive actions. The primary goal is to maintain military order and discipline with methods that are appropriate within the military framework, which do not include monetary fines.
