Midwatch Cowboy

You're not the senior most OOD, nor the most experienced. But the CO feels that when he's fast asleep, you can tell when things are getting out of hand. And you'll pick up the phone. Congratulations, you're the Midwatch Cowboy. "Maneuvering, Conn, shut up and push."

Coroner, get back in your box

A British soldier who died four years ago after an American pilot opened fire on his convoy in Iraq was killed unlawfully, a coroner ruled Friday.

“I find there was no lawful authority to fire on the convoy,” said Andrew Walker, the assistant deputy coroner of Oxfordshire. He called the attack on the soldier, 25-year-old Lance Cpl. Matthew Hull, an “assault” and added, “There was no lawful reason for it, and in that respect it was criminal.”


What a load of crap. YANAL, certainly not a JAG, therefore, shut up.
