The last one was what? '61?
It's been over 50 years since the military (judicially, via the UCMJ) has killed one of it's own.
I'm not going to be re-memorizing "Danny Deever" anytime soon.

Wasn’t the last soldier to be executed in WWII..Pvt Slovack (sp) who was found guilty of desertion? He faced a firing squad I believe. Guess the kid was shell shocked and ran, was captured and found guilty and during wartime, got a bullet for his attempt.
