who do i contact? I'm not in the military but, this person's officer will not do anything about it...and we are not close to any base, so I'm not sure if we even have military police...so now what?

That persons commanding officer, OSI, or the base security forces. Or local law enforcement if they are breaking the law....they will make sure to contact their superior

Better question, what do you have against this individual? Most important law-breakers of the UCMJ are double-covered by civilian law (tell the police they'll tell the military).
With the exception of select UCMJ laws, the only ones not covered by civilian law are the outdated ones like 125 sodomy.
If you got beef don't use the military to get revenge. If you got a legitimite complaint call the base operator an ask for the commercial number for
Marine/Army: CID
Air Force: OSI

the Uniform code of Military Justice, is it own intity and is governed by the military. You have choices. 1. you can use the trial defense lawers appointed to them by the JAG office or ask for one, its free for Military personell, or Hire a civilian Lawyer to represent you, but we all know that this will cost alot and get you no where. Last but not least you can write a letter to your Congressman and explain you situation and ask for a congressional investigation, this happens all the time in the military. I hoped this helped,, Good luck. After relooking at your situation the best thing for you to do is to write or call your congressman if you are in the right or travel to the nearest post and find a JAG office.

Contact your local police station. Not the street cop, but go to the station and ask if they have a Point of Contact for the nearest Military Police.

If you are active duty you report it to your Chain of Command, Military Police, or CID office. If you are not look up the closest military post CID office or Military Police. The post operator or phone book will provide this information.

Not near a base eh? Sounds like the person to whom you refer is a military reservist. If that is true, unless he is on duty elsewhere, he isn't subject to the UCMJ.
Reservists are only subject to the UCMJ while on duty, traveling to or from duty, except for two items, drug use while off duty, or conduct bringing discredit to the military.

If you are military, use the chain of command.
If you are near a base, call the military police.
If you are not near a military base, you may also call the nearest reserve center or recruiting office.

Generally you go to their superior officer or next in command depending on rank of the person involved

Find out who the Inspector General of the person's base is and report it to them. If that doesn't work and it's serious enough, talk to the press.
