Since his alleged crime occured prior to 20 and the plea bargain was made prior to 20 then if he wanted to keep his retirement his only choice was court martial.

Them's the breaks, no difference in my eyes between dishonorable service at 19.999 and dishonorable service at 18 should we wait 2 years for their retirement before plea bargain? 18 years is a lot of honorable service too.

That's one of the hard lessons of the military, when disciplin is done correctly, it's by god tough!

Precisely where we differ. I do not think discipline was done correctly in this instance.
