DUKE LAW — Four first-year Duke Law students have been accepted to competitive summer programs in the Navy and Air Force Judge Advocate General’s (JAG) Corps. Madison Cash ’24 will work with the Navy JAG Corps this summer, and Madison Dunbar ’24, Riley Flewelling JD/LLM ’24, and Katie Retzbach ’24 will work with the Air Force JAG Corps.  It is unusual for any school to secure so many slots for such highly competitive programs, said Major General Charles Dunlap, Jr. USAF (Ret.), professor of the practice of law and executive director of the Center on Law, Ethics and National Security (LENS.) “This is a terrific opportunity for law students to get first-hand experience of working in the public sector, and also to learn about the armed forces,” said Dunlap, whose 34-year career in the Air Force JAG Corps included four years as deputy judge advocate general. “Each of these students have amazing resumes and great personalities, so it was a real pleasure to work with them through the process. They will be fantastic representatives of the Law School.” The JAG Corps is the uniformed legal arm of each of the five traditional branches of the U.S. Armed Forces: Air Force, Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps and Navy. The Air Force JAG Corps provides legal services to the sixth branch, the Space Force, established in December 2019. Cash, Dunbar, Flewelling, and Retzbach spoke about their summer plans and interest in the JAG Corps for Dunlap’s Lawfire blog.
