- rayiner 13y agoMilitary defendant.
- ojbyrne 13y agoI'd be inclined to agree with you if he wasn't in the military.
- gresrun 13y agoNot fascist. As an enlisted man in the US military, Manning is subject to the jurisdiction of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). [1] [1] http://www.au.af.mil/au/awc/awcgate/ucmj.htm http://www.au.af.mil/au/awc/awcgate/ucmj.htm
- comrade_ogilvy 13y agoAs a volunteer member of the armed services, he is expected to be held accountable by standards that do not necessarily apply to civilians. That can cut both ways. In this case, it is likely to the defendants disadvantage, but that was always part of the context of his possible actions before they happened.
