I agree - my son also almost went to Captain's Mast for an unfortunate event when he was - uh, inebriated.

But somebody who is out trying to kill random members of his unit obviously has something else going on, and is beyond the scope of regular military punishments. Unfortunately, the military doesn't seem to have any policy for dealing with this, probably because it's a whole new problem.

As usual, these people act in a cowardly, sneaky manner: they attack sleeping troops who trust them, cut parachute lines on people who rely on them to pack the chutes right, etc. To me, this indicates that it was brought to us by the same people who blew up innocent civilans on buses and in pizza parlors, or sitting at their desks in lower Manhattan.
