The Treason In War Act

While the War Office is doing its best to keep the current mutiny in the army from becoming widely known, censoring letters can only go so far. Soldiers on leave quickly spread the word that the army is no longer willing to bleed needlessly in this war. Without mentioning the mutiny specifically, the leader announced today that the government would now consider any act that reflected a lack of commitment to the war to be treason. The punishment for treason is well known, and public support for the mutineers has all but evaporated. News of this was, of course, widely spread. Seeing little support from the general population, the soldiers have quietly resumed their duties.
