What I read was that during his training, he realized he had an aversion to war. He saw each day how he reacted to the training vs his fellow warriors. The judge believed he was sincere, not someone using this as an excuse to get out of a particular deployment he did not want to go on. I think it was a good ruling for this case.

I saw the article in navytimes, you need to pay to subscribe to get to many articles on that site. so I can;t post a good link.

As long as there must be war, I ask and I must answer was I worth dying for? ... Eleanor Roosevelt Ideals such as peace, freedom, justice, opportunity and individualism are just dreams without someone to turn those ideals into reality. Let's never forget the debt we owe our fellow citizens.
