Q.
President George W Bush yesterday approved the execution of an Army private, the first time in over a half-century that a president has affirmed a death sentence for a member of the US military.
Members of the US military have been executed throughout history, but just 10 have been executed by presidential approval since 1951 when the Uniform Code of Military Justice, the military's modern-day legal system, was enacted into law.
WHO WAS THE LAST PRESIDENT BEFORE BUSH TO GIVE THE PREVIOUS ORDER?
