   Opinion of the Court

PER Curiam:

This action involves the same question raised in United States v DuBay, 17 USCMA 147, 37 CMR 411. Pursuant to the holding in that case, the petition for review is granted; the decision of the board of review is reversed; and the record of trial is returned to the Judge Advocate General of the Army. The procedures outlined in DuBay should be followed.
