"War, justice and the real story behind ‘Marine A’
Known only by a codename at his trial for killing a wounded Taliban insurgent in Afghanistan, Alexander Blackman was the first British serviceman since the Second World War to be found guilty of a battlefield murder committed overseas. But when veterans, politicians, a bestselling author and a national newspaper successfully campaigned to overturn the conviction, the subsequent culture war should not have been about the morality of one man, but how armed conflict is waged by 21st-century Britain. With rare access to court documents and previously redacted reports, GQ uncovers how a commando unit was allowed to go rogue and why a failure to deploy ‘courageous restraint’ was ignored and almost covered up by the military hierarchy"
