And, as to the newspaper comment regarding, "it should have been a 129 and a COs parade" (I'm guessing he means lad should have been charged with 129 and had a Summary Trial vice a CM), Court Martial can and do happen for "mere 129s" - why do people think they can't be CM'd on 129s?? .
Pusser said:Unless this loophole has been closed since I last dealt with it, even a conviction under Section 130 does not result in a criminal record. It simply means that the offender has been found guilty under the NDA (not part of the Criminal Code) of something that is considered an offence under the Criminal Code. In other words, he/she has been found guilty under the part of the NDA that says everything in the Criminal Code is a service offence as well (saves on the printing costs of having to repeat everything in the CC into the NDA). I ran into this with a subordinate once who had previously been found guilty under Section 130 and was now seeking a pardon. The report back from the RCMP said he didn't need a pardon, because he had no Criminal Record. In other words, no Criminal Code conviction because he'd been charged and found guilty under the NDA vice the CC.

Pieman said:I wish they would publish the regimental summary trials. Would give a better picture of things happening.
What percentage of trials go to court martial? Very, very few from what I understand.

RCAF = organization with in the CF
Military policeman = job function
At the end of the day, the MCpl's duties were in the function of an aircraft security officer (ASO), responsible for ensuring that the security quarantine on the PM's aircraft is maintained prior to the PM boarding the aircraft.
