OPINION OF THE COURT

ROTHENBURG, Chief Judge:

Despite her plea of not guilty, a special court-martial composed of officer members found appellant guilty of one specification of wrongfully using marijuana in violation of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) Article 112a, 10 U.S.C. § 912a. She was sentenced to a bad-conduct discharge and a reduction to E-l. Appellant’s sole assignment of error is that the military judge erred when he determined that the defense opened the door to admission of the results of a commander-directed urinalysis. Finding no error, we affirm.
