I like the boss's "Maybe so". Can't shut down a guy who brushes off an insult that cleanly! Also that guy actually DID commit a crime when he put hands on the man and tugged his tie in what looked like petty revenge. That could see him a year behind bars because the tie pull could be seen as attempting to choke him and thus attempted murder. It looked like that was his intent.

What is "treasen"? I know what treason means.

Niesha McCoy what is a court of inquiry. What is it used for?

@@chriskratchman6130 to find out if an incident was avoidable, unavoidable, was the person involved was at fault or not. Boards of inquiry can recommend disciplinary action or not, should prosecution be done or not. Not exactly a grand jury/arraignment deciding whether or not crime was committed or if there is probable cause to prefer charges or not. I think Article 32 does that. Not sure on that

A lot of these films have rose tinted glasses about military life. Often showing the best parts and guys joking and laughing like it's 'fun" while the narrator emphasises this is what people WANT to do with thier lives. they WANT to enlist. Thankfully modern military videos are a lot more candid about what to expect, LOTS of yelling and NO one looking like they want to be there, but seeing it's volunteer now, the onus of quitting is now more of a "You're fired but won't be laid off until we figure out how to return you to society for wasting our time."

@ why not make the police/sheriff/state police an auxiliary of the Army that is exempt from the Posse Comitatus Act, much like the Coast Guard is an auxiliary of the Navy in times of war and and subject to Navy rules and regulations including the UCMJ?

@@chrismc410 The Coast Guard is at ALL TIMES a military service, and it's members are subject to the UCMJ at ALL TIMES !

Agreed !

Historically, that leads to some problems. Mostly due to people having too much power. Could work under the right restrictions?

@@void7080Reminds me of the old addage "Who polices the police?" At least being state or county sponsered, it gives teh Police some power over the military in their jurisdiction so that military junkies can't stroll into a town and act all high and mighty at the town's expense. I think that's always been the point and reason why police are separate. Especially in cases where a federal law is made but would be harmful to enforce in a particular town like a limit on logging when logging is the only way that one town can produce heat and survive since it's too difficult to transport goods.

The British didn't either

@@FBIAGENT725 they burned our white house, think they won.

@@runlikehell4180 By that logic Napoleon won against Russia because they destroyed Moscow.

It wasn't a war, by law at least. The us didn't declare war as that would mean the us recognized north Vietnam as a country

Joas Westerbeek Surprising how the US can win every major engagement yet still loose.

This video came out in the 1950s (over a decade before the American involvement in Vietnam).

Who said it was?

@@americanoperator3147Propoganda and history are often at odds. The US heavily aggrandizes their involvement in WWII and the feelings the Nazis had...but the Nazis felt that way about the BRITISH, they didn't really care about the US and even kind of tried to ally with them until more than halfway through the war. It really was significant as an excuse to propel US production to superpower levels to take advantage of Europe as a "Customer". Worked great for the economy but lead to the belief that the US needed to be in constant war to justify civilian production and when the US sends us to our deaths for no reason (Korea and Vietnam) we start to say "HANG ON......" and turn our guns on the so called "Generals" who never served but bought their 4 stars....

What are you talking about?
