Let me say two things, Mr. Dryden. First, there is this core principle in the service: the principle of universality. The theory is that everyone could be called upon to serve in positions of extreme peril. It's not open to say, “Well, I didn't sign up for that part of the armed forces, I only chose the Ottawa part of the armed forces.”
As to the first part of your question, I'm not sure I would say the standard should be applied, but I would say that the system we design—we're talking about a system here—has to be able to accommodate the demands of situations of extreme peril. You can't be designing a new system of military justice on the battlefield; by definition, that's arbitrary and potentially capricious.
