I am glad he was found not guilty. 0 -
It is good. The gov and country put these soldiers in harms way.
The exposure to war with no rules and no uniformed enemy and expect perfections unattainable.
Returning vets, 22 commit suicide daily. Then we prosecute others for doing the job.
Insanity has taken over our land.0 -
Good deal!!!!!!!!! 0 -
Well if he's not guilty then perhaps the men that plotted against him should be investigated and prosecuted. LIkely to get time served for the one conviction, perhaps a reduction in rank? 0 -

Yes, sounded like several in his unit did not like his leadership style and conspired to get him locked up for life.0 -
We shouldn?t be killing unarmed prisoners.
I understand he did not physically do it- per the testimony- but if ISIS put a knife in the neck of one of ours we would find it quite unacceptable.
None of us will ever really know what happened but one thing that is not in dispute is a prisoner of war in US custody was killed after he was captured and no longer a direct threat.0 -

Well then The JAG better continue their investigation because this patsy didn't kill him, a jury determined that fact.Warbirds wrote:We shouldn?t be killing unarmed prisoners.

Agreed, Warbirds.
It seems fairly well established that at a minimum he did stab the iswas puke. Not acceptable behavior from a member of the US Armed Forces. Interesting that this was not one of the charges against him.
While I have no problem with a member of iswas being dead, and there is probably some truth to the story of the corpsman that he would have died a much worse death in the hands of the Iraqi government, there is a line that individuals of the US Armed Forces should not cross. It appears that Gallagher crossed this line, and while I somewhat sympathize with the application of the concept of jury nullification in this case, I also believe that there is no place in our military for this man, and it is right that he has been removed.0 -

I agree. Once a prisoner and no longer a threat - treat him as harsh as you want. But there?s that line that must not be crossed.0
