A NAM was really just a consolation prize for the losing litigators after a case that will likely have a negative overall impact on their careers. Were it I, I would have asked my superior to forgo an award for this performance. Sad that the POTUS has to be the leader who shuts this off.

Had they won convictions on any core charges, they would all be getting NCMs or higher and looking toward early promotions, while the junior enlisted LN’s would be getting NAMs.

Reminds me of when Baltimore’s mayor mouth breather got an award by the association of mayors for telling rioters to destroy the city, information they complied with.

PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mr. President, PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“direct” the DOJ over which you have plenary power to prosecute to the fullest extent of the law, the filthy sub human cockroaches like Comey who conspired against you.

Oh please Mr. President and Dear Lord in Heaven above......

I don’t mind it a third time; hopefully, the charm.

Yes. For being elected president with the severe tailwinds of media promotion.

According to the Task & Purpose report, the attorneys were lauded for their “superb results” and “expert litigation,” despite failing to land a conviction on the most serious charges.
“No matter the result, we were right to prosecute [Gallagher],” the Regional Legal Service Office’s chief of staff noted, according to a motion obtained by the publication.


The above just strikes me. “We were right to prosecute.” A very defensive position.

Isn’t there a better response like “justice as been served.”

did the defense attorneys also get Achievement awards? That would be telling.

They ought to have the medal removal in the Rose Garden, with each of the officers having to hand over the medal to the acquitted SEAL.

Knowing that they’re lawyers, they’ll probably sue, and probably lose on grounds of incompetence.

I think President Trump should give them a promotion - to a front line combat position in Afghanistan for a one year tour of duty

Helmand Province would be a good post
