"The way to have good soldiers is to treat them rightly...A private soldier has as much right to justice as a major general."
President Abraham Lincoln"I can think of no more fitting expression of this country's appreciation for the sacrifices of our young servicemen than to grant them the same rights they are defending."
Senator Sam J. ErvinBilly Mitchell Born, December 28, 1879
Mitchell's son petitioned the Air Force in 1957 for a dismissal of his father's court-martial, but was denied. The Air Force merely expressed regret for what had happened. In 2005, President George W. Bush posthumously promoted Mitchell to the rank of Major General.
