I don't believe prior service is needed or relevant concerning having an opinion on military affairs. Agreed, but I'm asking so I understand the perspective of those stating their opinion. That being said, if our congress did it's job by debating our 'wars' Following the constitution is a novel idea. When was the last time congress actually declared war?

December of 1941. Which was, coincidentally, the last war or conflict we won.

17 years is an embarrassment as is the way the government treats veterans. It is my understanding that the cia recommended charges in this case after a job interview/poly....I wonder if they offered him the job and it was a set up?
Another Green Beret was charged for smacking down an afgan officer who was raping young boys on a base...I believe he was acquitted in the end.

Interesting exchange between Marty and Marlin.
Just so I can better understand perspective, have either one of you served active duty in the military? Mind sharing what, when and where? I have not. I have many close family and friends who have served.

That's interesting, maybe Trump can get involved and then the case gets tossed.

We kill people all the time in war! For a whole lot less!! This guy was the expert on the ground if that means anything to anyone anymore?
I'd say it depends on what his orders were! If he had orders with a mission that gave him the leeway to identify and kill? Then all is fair in love and war! If he didn't and had orders or an sop that said otherwise? Then yeah, he is up the creek without the paddle!
Knowing the last administration I'd say the man killed Obama cousin or something?
Matter of law enforcement? Whatever!
Mission first!

He should be given any leniency allowable. Decisions made during battle are very different than ones made in the comfort of our homes. I hope justice can be had with that understanding.
