JAGs & Military Justice

Listen Tuesday, Nov. 11, 2008 at 1:06 p.m.

Say "soldier" and most people don't think of military lawyers practicing law on a battlefield or in a makeshift courtroom. But there is a long history of Judge Advocate Generals in our military. We look at military justice system and hear the story of one JAG lawyer who prosecuted the first case of detainee abuse in Iraq.
