the US army in a nutshell:
A military jury in San Diego acquitted Gallagher, a decorated platoon leader, of charges that he murdered a captured Islamic State fighter by stabbing the wounded prisoner in the neck.
Gallagher also was found not guilty of attempted murder charges stemming from the wounding of two unarmed civilians - a school girl and an elderly man - who were shot from a sniper's perch.
But the panel convicted Gallagher of illegally posing for pictures with the detainee's corpse.
