(a) The nature of the offense;
(b) The military record and duty position of the serviceman or servicewoman being punished;
(c) The deterrent effect of announcing the punishment;
(d) The impact on the morale or mission of the applicable unit;
(e) The impact on the victim, if any, of the serviceman’s or servicewoman’s offense; and
