Maybe I missed it

Has the army (or any other service) charged even _one_ officer in the Abu Ghraib abuse investigation? Even for sleeping on duty?

As I have mentioned before, based on my own military experience, I find the description of a PFC as a "central figure" in _anything_ military rather . . . boggling. Way back when, a PFC or Specialist had about enough operational leeway to wipe his or her own ass without command supervision....

I think the woman general in charge of Abu Ghraib is getting discharged.

That doesn't qualify. I'd like to see a few courts-martial that lead to jail time, like "They" are handing down to the enlisted ranks.

Wouldn't we all.
