Get yer history straight, Bub. First, they couldn't serve. Then, a law was passed that allowed them to serve if they did so quietly. That law was repealed. It's only by the narrative of Dems and the MSM that the repeal meant full and open participation rather than a return to the long-standing prohibition.
Not to mention that commanding officers don’t convict. Judges or court martial panels convict or acquit. The commander just affirms the actions of the court.
That having been said, both of these dykes should have been given Article 15s for conduct unbecoming AND Article 92, Disobedience of a Lawful General Regulation.
