R.G. 153 Judge Advocate General records, court martial 116001

Does anyone know about a Court Martial at Camp Travis which convicted 41 persons to life imprisonment for refusing to wear the uniform? They were conscientious objectors. I am told that the records are in R.G. 153. The court martial case was 116001. I am interested when or if their sentences were commuted after WWI was complete.

Respectfully submitted
