The military defense lawyers, who are damaging their careers by doing their jobs with honor and fidelity to the law, are heros in my book.
I did not expect this, but I did not have very much contact with the JAG Corps during my time in uniform. You have to have some understanding of military culture to recognize what an unusual thing it is for a military officer to do what is right, rather than what is career-enhancing. The Navy generally operates on a "one strike" system, so these lawyers are, in all likelihood, damaging their careers by doing their jobs in fidelity to the rule of law and ethics.
Would only that fidelity to the Constitution and the rule of law had been in the minds of the Cabal of Five.
