Im Army and I dont think he will get far with JAG. I am a SGT E5. I have personaly had something similar happen to one of my guys. He took a deposit and the guy never came. a month later he shows up and wants his money back. All through paypal. Bother were service members and it was handles internally, but it came down to My guy kept the money. I think this guy needs a lesson, but it understandable that you dont want to drag this out. Just want it over right. If you know his full name and his unit. You can find out really quick who is chain of command is. it will be handled very quickly too. But if they think he deserves his money back....they will show hik every trick in the book to get it back. He sounds like a dead beat to me. Service Member or not, you should have better values than this guy. Ha who the hell thinks a deposit is refundable?
