1 M.J. 151 | United States Court of Military Appeals | 1975
OPINION OF THE COURT
An appellate exhibit offered by the Government before this Court establishes that a recruiting sergeant, conspiring with others, provided false documentation to the appellant in order to effect his enlistment.
The decision of the United States Army Court of Military Review is reversed. The findings of guilty and the sentence are set aside, and the charge is ordered dismissed.
Appellate Government counsel’s candor in revealing a document which adversely affected the Government’s position in this litigation is commendable and serves well as a model for the degree of professionalism which a. criminal justice system must strive to attain.
