This briefing transcript, conducted today, has everything you need to know about a military justice and court martial procedures. The thing to note is, it is entirely “on background,” meaning the presenter’s name is not noted. (reporters can only identify him as a “senior military lawyer”).

This is actually not all that extraordinary – I’ve seen a couple of similar background briefings from various Cabinet-level agencies on the web like this. But it is kinda weird, and shows how tought it is for Washington reporters not to use anonymous sources in their stories.
