A Scrutiny of the Ethical Dilemmas in ‘A Few Good Men’

A young Navy Lawyer named Lt. Daniel Kaffee is in charge of the cases of two Marines, namely perfluorocarbon louden Downey and LCpl Harold Dawson, who have been court-martialed because of allegedly carrying outing a fellow marine that goes by the name of PFC William T. capital of Chile (Reiner et. al., 1992).PFC William T. capital of Chile criticizes the status of Guantanamo Naval d soundlying Bay in foothold of its health condition (Reiner et. al., 1992). The top officials ignore his appeals which led him to finally try on requesting that he be transitred to another Naval Base (Reiner et. al., 1992). As they continue to pay no attention to his complaints, he threatened that he would expose a case of an bootleg fence-line shooting if they would not transfer him to another Naval Base (Reiner et. al., 1992).He then sends a letter to Col. Nathan Jessep, the CO of the Marines at the aforementi onenessd base (Reiner et. al., 1992). Col. Nathan Jessep reads it as a way of inform Lt. Col. Matthew Markinson, who is Col. Nathan Jesseps executive officer and 1st Lt. Jonathan Kendrick, who is the platoon commander of PFC William T. capital of Chile (Reiner et. al., 1992).Both Col. Nathan Jesseps subordinates get mad as they were being notified about it nevertheless they disagree with the decision of transferring PFC William T. Santiago to another Naval Base (Reiner et. al., 1992). Lt. Col. Matthew Markinson wants to transfer PFC William T. Santiago, however, Col. Nathan Jessep do not agree with it stating that PFC William T. Santiago will be trained there instead (Reiner et. al., 1992).Lt. Daniel Kaffee establishes that PFC change intensity Downey and LCpl Harold Dawson were just carrying out the instructions/orders cast offn by Col. Nathan Jessep, as well as, 1st Lt. Jonathan Kendrick (Reiner et. al., 1992). PFC change intensity Downey and LCpl Harold Dawson reiterate that they were given instructions to give the victim a Code blood-red (Reiner et. al., 1992) . A Code Red is a colloquial terminology that pertains to extrajudicial punishment (Reiner et. al., 1992).When Lt. Daniel Kaffee began to infer that he was only specifically picked to be the lead counsel of PFC Louden Downey and LCpl Harold Dawson, he knew immediately the reasons why (Reiner et. al., 1992). It was because he used to engage himself in quickly settling cases by plea bargains (Reiner et. al., 1992).The ones who picked him had two motives for choosing him offspring one is to hamper the case of PFC Louden Downey and LCpl Harold Dawson from being tried and number two is to humiliate the Marine Corps which will eventually disfigurement Col. Nathan Jesseps promotion (Reiner et. al., 1992).Fortunately, as the case progresses, Lt. Daniel Kaffee is more motivated to discipline on the case (Reiner et. al., 1992). He even learned to cooperate and wish LCDR JoAnn Galloway, his partner in defending the case of PFC Louden Downey and LCpl Harold Dawson (Reiner et. al., 1992).In the end, Lt. Daniel Kaffee is thriving in defending the case by providing evidence that indeed Col. Nathan Jessep consistent a Code Red to get back at PFC William T. Santiago who has written a letter with regards to a case of an illegal fence-line shooting (Reiner et. al., 1992).As Col. Nathan Jessep confesses that he ordered so, he was arrested and detained while PFC Louden Downey and LCpl Harold Dawson were not charged by the court as guilty of murder and conspiracy to commit murder however, was charged for conduct unbecoming of a United States Marine (Reiner et. al., 1992). PFC Louden Downey and LCpl Harold Dawson were dishonorably discharged because of that (Reiner et. al., 1992).
