Roger...I think in Hohman the counsel was not augmented before he went into the IRR, and Gannon was claiming in that case that there was nothing they could do unless he accepted augmentation. He was probably wrong. But in this case, as you mentioned, Vokey is retired, and there is precedent in bringing back to active-duty someone who is retired.

Have no concern about not being listed by name on the brief. We didn't overlook the remedy of Vokey being recalled. We argued it during the motion hearing. And Nick Gannon took the position that they had researched the availability of that remedy on the same motion in a case called, Hohman, and determined they had no authority to involuntarily recall an officer to active duty (though I don't think that officer had retired).
