Soldiers life threatened by his own side.

[Autumnlicious]

The young soldier in this thread is an idiot,the behavior of his comrades predictable.

That doesn't make it right.

Very little in the US military is "right".

His case was dismissed on grounds he had not used the military conflict resolution systems before proceeding to a lawsuit.

He 'leapt before he looked' as it were.

And the military, due it's history, reserves quite a few powers.

Pat Tillman was an American hero who was shot by his own men and there was no justice.

This ex-soldier should be thankful his 'comrades' did not execute him and cover it up. They could've and the military would back them up out of sheer inertia and unwillingness to have outsiders inspect it.
