Colonel Dax:
Remember, you'll be soldiers in the presence of superior officers, so act like what you are. Soldiers! And brave ones at that. I've been in the room you'll be sitting in. The afternoon sun will be in your faces, so don't let it seem as if you're dropping your eyes in a hangdog manner. When you answer questions, look the judges in the eye. Don't whine, plead, or make speeches. That's my job. Simple statements. Short. But make them so they can be heard all over the room. And try not to repeat yourselves. I'll do that for you when I sum up. We haven't much time. The court martial begins in about an hour. I've got notes to look at. Good luck.
