Mr. Justice Brennan, with whom Mr. Justice Douglas and Mr. Justice Marshall join,
concurring in the judgment.
Although I concur in the judgment, I would direct dismissal of DeChamplain’s suit, not as the Court does on the ground that “the federal district courts must refrain from intervention,” but because DeChamplain makes no claim denying the right of the military to try him at all. Therefore, his claim of right of access to and use of classified documents is properly to be presented to the military tribunals. See my concurring and dissenting opinion in Schlesinger v. Councilman, 420 U. S. 738, 762 (1975).
