Maybe so...but unless I'm mistaken he can also be granted partial,or *full*,immunity.

That looks really bad for Obama and Pretreaus.

Pretreaus spilling the beans, though, it looks like Pretreaus is telling the truth, especially since the affair is old news, and especially after the MSM has told us "sex doesn't matter".(i.e Clinton/Lewinsky)

As a retired officer drawing pay, he can be recalled to active service 'til the day he dies, and even in a retired status, remains subject to the UCMJ.

I wonder if he ever court martialed a subordinate for adultery....
