In other proceedings, a lower military court sent a genuine member of the People's Defence Force to prison for taking money under false pretenses from two priests. He promised, among other things, to provide them with UPDF water for the mission hospital they run. Larceny of water? Indeed: the Editor once prosecuted the petty officer in charge of a New England lighthouse for stealing 400 gallons of fresh water, "military property of the United States, of some value." Long story. I'll tell you over a drink. (Incidentally, the accused's name was, appropriately, Glass.)
