[blindLaw] limitation on blind attorneys

[Derek Manners]

I’m not speaking for all non-combat roles, but JAGs do carry guns when oversees from time to time and some of the ones I’ve met served in active war zones.  I believe the military can and should be integrated, to a degree, but JAGs are a special case in my opinion after having worked alongside side them at DOD.

How is it that now an attorney might end up having to pick up an AR 15 and go to  fight? How is it that there is no space for noncombatants anymore in the military?
