rather see it tried before a panel of members

They keep hoping they'll get lucky enough to draw a panel of suck-ups.

Charging the Sgt with a crime that had no victims, no evidence, no complaints, and no recognition that soldiers make stories bigger and bigger and bigger with the retelling and retelling and retelling, and the tellers lose track of fact and fiction.

War is where it's sane to be insane, and the only way to deal with it is temporary insanity.

Yep. Catch-22.

Hold on, Padre. Members of the court vote by secret written ballot. The anonymity, IMO, precludes your inference.
