Walz on calling for Trump to release MRI results: "Here we got a guy on Thanksgiving where we spent time with our families, ate, played Yahtzee. This guy is apparently in a room ranting.

Senator Kelly is correct.

Plus a Public Service Announcement:

KEY section of Department of Defense's Law of War Manual is 18.3.2.1.
