the military does recognize the offense of attempted conspiracy.
The conspiracy ends when the object of the conspiracy is accomplished, the members withdraw, or the members abandon the conspiracy.[3] The conspiracy does not necessarily terminate merely because the government defeated the object of the conspiracy. In other words, your client could be convicted of a conspiracy even though he or she joined the conspiracy after it was defeated.[4]
