I went to the site and in one of the comment the Military Code was cited:

"Rule 502. Qualifications and duties of personnel of courts-martial

(a) Members.

(1) Qualifications. The members detailed to a court-martial shall be those persons who in the opinion of the convening authority are best qualified for the duty by reason of their age, education, training, experience, length of service, and judicial temperament. Each member shall be on active duty with the armed forces and shall be:

(A) A commissioned officer;

(B) A warrant officer, except when the accused is a commissioned officer; or

(C) An enlisted person, except when the accused is either a commissioned or warrant officer.

Again Sidney CANNOT PROSECUTE in a Military Tribunal setting, period."

Could someone with the appropriate expertise say whether and if so how this is incorrect? (I hope it is, but I also believe in research and sauce.)

EDIT: Even if she's not qualified to prosecute before a military tribunal, it may be moot provided she has top-flight military lawyers on her team.
