On a semi-related note I don't understand why they got rid of the firing squad in the US military. Surely as a soldier you'd want to go out like a man.

You mean the "war crime" where US military thought journalists were Iraqi insurgents hoisting an RPG? This isn't a case of Vietnam-esque indiscriminate bombing or shooting.

Yeah, he was held in pretty extreme circumstances, like isolated and naked in part because he was a "suicide risk" IIRC.  Fuzzy on the details, but it wasn't good.

He's eligible for parole in 13 years, which with credit for time served is about 9.5 years.

This part was left in:

Quote from: http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/08/22/how-will-chelsea-manning-be-treated-in-prison.html
One thing is almost a certainty: celibacy probably won’t be an option for Chelsea Manning, but she will have choices in regard to how she wants to spend her years behind bars. With that said, we need to keep in mind that one person’s prison is another person’s palace. Chelsea Manning could become the queen bee.

And these parts were cut out:

Quote from: http://mediamatters.org/blog/2013/08/22/daily-beast-publishes-piece-suggesting-prison-i/195548
Quiet as it's kept, this is one reason for high recidivism rates. In prison, closeted homosexuals can receive what they desire but are able to maintain to the world they really find such behavior disgusting; in this manner they don't have to take responsibility for what happened to them.

Quote
Indeed, the vast majority of experienced convicts know that “true” rape is not a common occurrence in prison. That doesn’t mean that homosexual sex doesn’t occur—it certainly does. But it’s really not that unusual for a new prisoner to show up on the compound and begin walking around the yard in pants far too tight. Before long they drop the soap in the shower, get a little close to another naked man, and then— simply because they’ve never been able to come to terms with their own sexuality—tell anyone who will listen (but, interestingly enough, they usually never complain to the guards) that they were “raped.” And a week or two later it could happen again, and then again.

And a double-down from the comments section:

Quote from: http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2013/08/22/the-daily-beast-publishes-rape-apologism-that-alleges-true-rape-doesnt-occur-in-prison/
True rape against anyone is horrible, and I would never condone it. But, there are some guys in prison who set themselves up for “rape” again, and again, and again. All they have to do if they don’t want to participate in the sexual activity is to go into protective custody … but men many don’t. Why?
