I remember reading that JAG has the highest conviction rate of any group of prosecutors in the world. More than 95%.

The question is whether they would be subject to an Iraqi trial. I currently have a call into a friend who is both a JAG officer and a deputy prosecutor to get an answer.

No way it would be an Iraqi trial. It will be an American military court martial under the UCMJ.

No doubt the JAG prosecutors have high conviction rates. Regular prosecutors would drool at the chance to have a jury composed entirely of members of the military.
