Defense Scores Testimony in Mitchell Court Martial
Brigadier General LeRoy Eltinge testified as the prosecution opened its counter offensive in Col. William Mitchell's court martial. The defense sought records of a supposed Hawaiian island defense plan, while papers cited by the prosecution described a war project for Hawaii rather than a formal plan for Oahu defenses. The proceedings included sharp exchanges as Reid challenged the government’s evidence and insisted war plans be produced, with Eltinge noting limited army navy air service cooperation during maneuvers.
