Aren’t the prisoners at Gitmo military prisoners and not subject to the legal system and pardon?

Only a military officer can make the release.

Only a military officer can make the release.

Or the Secretary of the Navy...the Secretary of Defense...or,well you know.Also,there's a Federal appeals court that deals exclusively with the military (can't recall its name)...I'll bet *they* have the authority as well.
