...forms for securing those rights (e.g.., trial by jury). The status-of-forces agreements cover some 14,000 cases a year without bruising the U.S. sense of justice.

Girard, who killed a Japanese woman, was tried amid U.S. hue and hubbub in a Japanese court without a jury-and received the justice which was his unalienable right.
