This past Sunday, Oliver North had a special on Pearl Harbor. In an inteview with a veteran, it was noted that he and another US soldier captured the first Japanese war prisoner a few days after the attack. This elderly vet described the capture. He also stated that in interrogating the prisoner, they did the same thing as Col. West. They held a gun near his head and fired into the sand of beach. They were able to get a lot of info out of him. When did the army go PC?

The Army has learned through the years that certain techniques give unreliable information. We also strive to follow the rule of law and obey orders.

If you want us to start picking and choosing what orders to obey, watch out when the new "red coats" decide your property would be better used for military purposes.

Lawful orders are to be obeyed, there are reasons for them greater than 1 man or even the supposed number of men LTC West saved. You want to change the laws go ahead and petition congress, I'll be more than happy to follow the new ones too.

I served for three years during the Nixon administration and was taught from day one that I could not do this type thing, so I guess it was before then??? What did the UCMJ say when you served?
