Military law is complicated law, is harsh law, is brutal law. That’s how many people see it, at least. The military, after all, deals with war, deals with violence, deals with death - the military can’t afford to be weak when it comes to law. The military has a very rigid, specific system set in place. There isn’t a lot of “wiggle room” in military law. Those who have been accused by the military of doing something wrong, therefore, really find themselves in a difficult situation.
There are other, milder ways of looking at military law, however. The military (in some ways) is a business just like any other - a bureaucracy just like any other. The military has its bosses, it’s secretaries, typists, mailmen, errand boys, computer technicians, janitors, data entry people, etc. etc. etc. Not everybody in the military is a soldier. Not everybody’s a general, obviously, not everybody’s directly tied to combat. But still, even as a corporation the military behaves uniquely - and requires special lawyers to try its cases. A military lawyer (also called a military attorney) is simply a lawyer who’s trained in military law.
