Opinion of the Court

FLETCHER, Chief Judge:

On this appeal, the accused challenges the jurisdiction of the general court-martial which tried him for wrongfully transferring 3 pounds of marihuana to a fellow soldier “just outside” gate 3 of Fort Campbell, Kentucky. He contends that the offense is not service connected as that term was explained in O’Callahan v. Parker, 395 U.S. 258, 89 S.Ct. 1683, 23 L.Ed.2d 291 (1969). See also Gosa v. Mayden, 413 U.S. 665, 93 S.Ct. 2926, 37 L.Ed.2d 873 (1973); Relford v. Commandant, 401 U.S. 355, 91 S.Ct. 649, 28 L.Ed.2d 102 (1971). We disagree.
