Summary Pound reports on flaws in the military justice system. The story reveals "a standard of fairness inferior to that guaranteed to accused criminals in America's civilian courts" and "a pattern of shocking abuse and injustice," according to the contest questionnaire. The system hits average enlisted men and women, while generals and admirals are rarely, if ever, tried.
