A thought experiment about the military justice system

Imagine, a policeman [allegedly] commits a crime on the job. If the case goes to a jury trial, how many cops will be on the jury? Most likely, none, because either criminal prosecutors or civil lawyers will disqualify cops during the jury selection process.

Now imagine, a member of the military [allegedly] commits a crime on the job. If the case goes to a military jury trial, how many military members will be on the jury? All of them.

Enough said.
