Eugene M. Caffey, who served as The Judge Advocate General (TJAG) from 1954 to 1956, had a remarkable career as an Army lawyer. He apparently is the only judge advocate in history to transfer from his basic branch to the Judge Advocate General's Department (JAGD), and then return to his basic branch before returning to the JAGD once again-to finish out his career as the Army's top lawyer. Caffey also is unique as the only World War Ⅱ-era judge advocate to have been decorated with both the Distinguished Service Cross and Silver Star-awards for combat heroism that are outranked only by the Medal of Honor. Finally, Caffey is the only judge advocate in modern history to go from colonel to brigadier general to major general (and TJAG) in just six months. Yet despite his outstanding service as a judge advocate and combat commander, Major General Caffey's career was tempestuous because he was unable (or unwilling) to get along with his superiors and was unable (or unwilling) to keep his opinions to himself.

Caffey）于1954年至1956年担任司法部长（TJAG），在陆军律师领域有着非凡的职业生涯。显然，他是历史上唯一从基本分支机构调任至总检察长部（JAGD），然后回到基本分支机构，然后再次回到JAGD的法官辩护律师，从而结束了他作为陆军最高律师的职业生涯。作为第二次世界大战时期唯一的法官拥护者，卡菲独树一帜，同时获得了杰出服务十字勋章和银星奖，以表彰他们的战斗英雄主义，仅获得荣誉勋章。最后，卡菲（Caffey）是现代历史上唯一一位在短短六个月内从上校升为准将，再改任少将（和TJAG）的法官。然而，尽管卡菲少将在担任法官辩护人和战斗指挥官方面表现出色，但他的职业生涯还是风风雨雨，因为他无法（或不愿）与上级相处，也无法（或不愿）保持自己的见解。
