In my new book — I write on the high rate of Army death-penalty cases in 1940s. This was under Articles of War & Jim Crow.
With UCMJ reform & desegregation — there were few Army executions in 1950s — and zero (0) during 1962-2025.
Under Trump/Vance — Army may resume executions:
The Army has a plan to execute its death row inmates should Trump give the order. It would be the first US military executions in a half century. abcnews.com/US/army-lays-gro…

Politics can’t be about who eats meat or doesn’t, who is ugly or isn’t. We can’t live in a world as stupid as it appears from the vantage of U.S. party politics. Or not for long.
