You sound like you are enlisted, if you are serving your country at all.
Clearly you do not understand the Officer’s Oath, and you do not understand this case, nor have been following it enough to understand the details.
Since you weren't even posting on this forum during the Lakin trial, feel free to click on my in forum link at my profile page. You'll see I posted extensively on Lakin and predicted with 100% accuracy exactly how this case would end from the moment Lakin made his intentions known. Had you ever served (which clearly you haven't) you'd have been able to accurately predict this outcome as well.
The only thing I failed to predict was Lakin pleading guilty and begging the court for leniency.

Excuse me.
“You sound like you are enlisted...”
And how, pray tell, are we ignorant peasants who do the vast majority of the bleeding for our country supposed to sound? Do we use “ain't” and “aw, shucks” and scratch our privates as we chew on a blade of grass while pulling up our ill-fitting, unstylish trousers?
As an enlisted person in my youth, who fought for his country, has permanent injuries to show for it, and took over directing an action from dead officers, all I can say is cram it where the sun don't shine.
Why don't you tend to worshiping your little Vattel idol and drop any pretense that someone who would utter the ignorant sentence cited above has any insight into anything to do with either honor or the military?
