'Arrest' is a specific legal status. A person detained by military

there are specific legal rules that must be followed - or else the
detention turns into the felony of 'false arrest.'


You are mistaken. I suggest you look up the word "arrest".

Why should I? I had this all explained to me in a class taught by a
JAG lawyer.
