Dispatches from the Culture Wars: The True Heroes of the Hamdan Case:
This society likes to call its soldiers heroes, and for the dangerous job they do for little pay, I'm not about to argue with that designation. But if you're looking for heroes, look no further than these JAG corps officers who took a stand that ends any chance of career advancement for any of them. They took a stand for the rule of law and for the integrity of the courts as a truth-seeking institution. They took an oath to preserve and protect the Constitution; unlike our President, they took that oath seriously.
