It is worth bearing in mind that you can get court-martialed for such thing as alcohol abuse, fighting in a bar, being chronically late for work, etc., in the miliary. Most of the courts martial I was involved with were for such things. That 3000 number is pretty reasonable: represents less than 0.1% of military members being involved in such proceedings.

Understood. I was talking with another Freeper who was a bit upset by another freepers tag line that made a vet comment that I frankly was not embarrassed by, That being the vets as a population, have their share of bad apples like Tim McVeigh and Benedict Arnold.

anyone reading that post would not understand the gist of the conversation.
