I am familiar with JAGs and the military justice system kowtowing to limp wristed Washington politicians. Put me in the camp of Gen Douglas MacArthur and you readily know my viewpoints on war. Civilians are often sheeple and misled by shepard(s) operating for there own fiscal or political gain. Nothing new under the sun as King Solomon once put it. Christ said the truth would set us free. He did not say the truth would be roses. I am a bit bitter knowing the truth of where America is at, how we got here and what will occur to right it (sad to say I agree, cannot avoid global conflict now).
What really happened with your nephew? I do not know the truth. Freepmail me if this is too personal for a public forum. I remember the incident and just brushed up on the news reports.
