Greer v. Spock, 424 U.S. 828 (1976), is a U.S. Supreme Court case in which the court upheld military regulations strictly forbidding partisan political activity on unrestricted areas of a military base (in this case, Fort Dix and Benjamin Spock's activity) against a First Amendment challenge.[1][2]
