I have sat in on court martial as a witness. You really have no clue of what you are talking about.
A witness ? And you want to say that I have no idea ! You have a hell of a sense of humor . We need more clowns like you in these trying times . Thanks for the relief .
I have sat on a panel which was run just like a Court Martial. With a military Judge, two JAG officers as "prosection" and "defense" attorneys, and full bird Colonel as the senior ranking office of the Court. I was the junior officer. I can't recall, or maybe never knew, just what that sort of panel was called, but like I said, the whole affair was run just like a Court Martial. The main difference was that we were merely to recommend disposition to the convening authority, who could then impose less penalty than we recommended, but not a more severe one. (and in fact we could have recommended a discharge., but we did not. Turned out we made the right call as the airman successefully served out his enlistement with no further problems)
But you are correct, he doesn't know what he is talking about.
