Kind of amazing they didnt kill shot him on site.
I'm not sure about US Military law and the right to appeal sentences. It could be similar to US civilian law, but I'm totally in the dark. I'll send a call to my JAG friend and get his thoughts.

Even still, in Texas, they push through inmates on death row a little quicker than here in California.

Somehow the military needs to find a way to classify him as a non-military combatant...
