SULLIVAN, Judge
(concurring in part and in the result):
I join the majority on everything except the pretrial punishment issues, since I did not join the majority opinion in its “tantamount to an affirmative waiver” theory in United States v. Southwick, 53 MJ 412, 416 (2000). Nevertheless, I can join in the result on the pretrial punishment issues. Appellant does not allege that his purported illegal pretrial punishment was done to induce his confession as alleged in United States v. Fricke, 53 MJ 149 (2000). Accordingly, our decision in Fricke does not require similar action in appellant’s case.
