Military Reservation Law and Legal Definition
A military reservation is property that the United States government has exclusive jurisdiction over. It is separate from the surrounding state in both a jurisdictional and territorial sense. The precise nature of its sovereignty is established by the Constitution of the United States, and the act of the legislature of the surrounding state, but generally the military reservation itself and the jurisdiction and legislation over it have been granted to the United States, and thereby is created as an independent sovereignty.
