What does it mean when the Third Amendment states, "No soldier shall, in time of peace, be quartered in any house without the consent of the owner, nor in time of war but in a manner to be prescribed by law," also known as the housing of soldiers? In part 5 of our "Bill of Rights & YOU!" series, Janine Turner, Cathy Gillespie, and Tova Love Kaplan interview Professor John McCurdy on the quartering of soldiers in times of peace and war, expectations of privacy, and potential applications of the Third Amendment in the modern day.
