Ah so Summary Court Martials did take place but no records were kept - So:

1: How did you come to hear about them Raggy?

2: Why do you think they'd bother to go through all that rigmarole? Wouldn't it be just simpler to summarily execute the guilty party? Which of course would lead onto

3: Who would carry out the execution Raggy - we are now up to about twenty odd people who have to be in on this secret.

4: Raggy as you are "in the know" on all these secret summary Courts Martial and Summary Executions can you give us a name of anyone who was executed, anyone who presided over such a Court Martial, anyone who acted as Chaplain, Doctor or indeed firing party? NO? What a surprise oh dear, how sad, never mind.

The number of British and Commonwealth troops who were executed is know and Court Martial papers for all are on line.
