      Over the past forty years, the historiography of British Army ex-serviceman in Ireland has undergone a veritable ‘historical revolution’. Like its British and international counterparts, the historiography on Ireland has focused on the lives and care of these men after the war within the Irish Free State; Irish government policy towards them; and ex-servicemen’s relationships with the Irish and British governments, British agencies and their own often hostile communities. Researchers continue to document the existence, organisation and activities of two British government agencies: the Land Trust and Ministry of Pensions, with brief analyses being undertaken on the British Legion and more especially the Southern Irish Loyalists Relief Association’s vital role in relieving impoverished ex-servicemen and their families. Yet far more can still be said about ‘British’ military charity in Ireland after 1922. The purpose of this article is twofold. First, to discuss two court cases that were fought by the Irish, British and Northern Irish governments and several other Irish interests between 1923 and 1929 over the legacies of two then redundant pre-war Irish military charities. Second, to analyse the place of two court cases within the broader contexts of Irish post-war state-building and the history of the British ex-serviceman, but more especially his family in Ireland. What would their fate be in an independent Ireland? Read less

      [...]of a multitude of complaints about military justice during World War I, including controversial trials like the Houston Riots courts-martial,1 Congress began modifying the Articles of War to give an accused more procedural and evidentiary rights at trial. "4 Their concerns soon reached Congress, which decided that "drastic modifications and improvements were necessary" in the military criminal legal system.5 The result was the end of the Articles of War, Rules for the Government of the Navy, and disciplinary laws of the Coast Guard-and the creation of a new Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) on May 5, 1950.6 This new UCMJ created a civilian court consisting of three judges appointed from civilian life by the President-by and with the advice and consent of the Senate-for terms of fifteen years. [...]the law also provided that not more than two of the judges would be appointed from the same political party. 7 On May 22, 1951, President Harry S. Truman nominated Robert E. Quinn of Rhode Island, George W. Latimer of Utah, and Paul W. Brosman of Illinois.8 Quinn was appointed Chief Judge and received the fifteen-year term of office. 9 Latimer was appointed an Associate Judge with a ten-year term; Brosman was appointed an Associate Judge with a five-year term.
