The best he can hope for is to just get this over with as quickly as possible so he can appeal in the civilian courts the fact that his due process and 6th Amendment rights were grossly violated.

Someone who pleads guilty cannot thereafter appeal on those grounds. Pleading "guilty" means he is saying he is, in fact and law, guilty.
