Abstract
In the PELEUS War Crimes Trial, the British judge advocate characterized 'customary international law' as: "nothing but a body of rules and customs, expressing the common sense of civilized nations." I would like to make my first parenthetical remark at this point by saying that I have been tremendously impressed by the common sense approach of the draft Law Instructions for Naval Warfare.
