However, there was a unanimous recomsendation by the Commission, concurred in by the Attorney General and the Judge Advocate General of the Arny, that the sentence of two of the prisoners be commated to life imprisonment because of their assistance to the Government of the United States in the ap- prehension and conviction of the others.
