The colonel needs to be assigned to base infractions in the Nome Alaska region.
I’m sure his name is feces throughout the military as it should be. The POS earned the disdain and loathing he will get the rest of his life from American patriots!!
The douche bag should walk the grounds of Arlington and beg their foregivness. He sold his soul to Satan, in my opinion.
“Complex leniency factors”? I guess us plebeians just aren’t able to understand. Thanks for clarifying out position as subjects, AP.
More than likely CNN or MSNBC will hire him as their "legal correspondent" or some nonsense.
Who needs criminals when you have judges like the despicable and vile dirtbag col jeffery nance. He is a disgrace to the army and the legal profession.
Nope, only with an eye towards reducing the sentence. The sentence cannot be increased by anyone or anything. Further appeals, review and action by the Convening Authority, or requests for clemency to the Convening Authority can only act to reduce the punishment adjudged.
There are no automatic punishments in a military court. The sentence for any crime in the military ranges from "No punishment" up to the maximum permissible punishment established in the Manual for Courts-Martial.
See my #67
Plus apparently a logical diode to prevent ramping up the voltage later.
Unit crest, likely. The meaning would be specific to the unit.
Isn’t the sentence a contradiction?
If his ‘imprisonment’ was not his fault and considered time spent as a prisoner harsh enough. why go through the sham of a RIR to PVT and a DD?
Wasn’t/Isn’t the policy for POWs to be given their advancements as they come up with the assumption being they would have either been promoted or passed if an exam required?
So, with the Judges ruling the rest of the sentence should have been a promotion to cover the couple of years he spent ‘locked up’ while awaiting GCM and maybe a General Under Honorable Conditions Discharge-IF they took into consideration his conduct may have been undesirable.
I seem to remember the phrase ‘Six & a kick’ which I am assuming to have meant 6 years in Leavenworth and a DD and I believe the Leavenworth trip brought a Rate Change to E1 for record keeping purposes and upon release from your cell one was unceremoniusly escorted out the front gate.
NOW back in the day day, the escort out the gate meant standing there with your rate stripped and being escorted by horsemen and ‘marched through the ranks of your fellow EX soldiers’ and all vestiges of your past Army service to be removed from your person or property and therefore BRANDED for life.
Not sure if yellow stripe painted on back or not (cowardice) but I am sure the Troopers had their way with their ex-comrade once the Brass was ‘out of sight’
re Chuck Connors, ‘Branded’ c 1965-66 who spent the ‘rest of the series’ fighting the Cowardice charge while bringing justice to the frontier....etc etc etc
NOT to be confused with Nick Adams as Johnny Yuma who also spent time wandering the Wild West in the pursuit of Justice for the common man while searching his soul for himself....
(or something like that)
Show me the proof and pictures. If he was treated so brutally, a pansy ass like him never would have lasted five years.
All of Judge Jeffrey R. Nance’s decision is based on protecting the reputation and legacy of Barack Obama.
Thank you. I didn’t know that.
