But what about when officers are abusing their authority? Or the Civilians accuse soldiers of rape or theft in the civilian community that a cantonment depends upon for support, and there is evidence that YOUR people did it, but not Which One that did it?

When the fight was still on in 2003, the action for crimes was........ Later.
Into the summer 2003 when it moved to Stability ops and convoy escorts. The Iraqi National Police were press ganged into Iraqi on Iraqi crime. We just followed and enforce "Due Process".
As for what your advocating that is the CID and the IG. The Judge (LTC and above) usually take residence in a nice big safe rear area and the Court is held there.
As for "War Crimes" and criminal acts by Soldiers on Civilians. They go before the Court the Court doesn't come to them.
JAG is both the Prosecutor and the Defense.
