Ageed, JJ....Just saying,

The military Courts Martial have been infiltrated by civilian barristers lately, defending the likes of Lt. Ehren Watada in a case which he was charged with Articles 87, 88 and 133 (i.e. Missing Movement; Contempt for Official; Conduct Unbecoming of an Officer. There were more but only A.87 and A.133 were brought forward......and the case has yet to be brought to trial.

Now we have a new CIC, so what are the odds that Article 32 investigations won't be brought up against the Constitutional Objectors.
