If the general pays no attention to the whims of individual states, how then does he figure out who is actually married? Does he recognize, for instance, couples who have been joined in a religious ceremony performed by an unlicensed person, or couples joined in a civil ceremony performed by a justice of the peace? What happens when there has been a divorce?
