Opinion of the Court

ROBERT E. Quinn, Chief Judge:

After affirmance of his conviction for larceny, in violation of Article 121, Uniform Code of Military Justice, 50 USC § 715, the accused petitioned this Court for further review. We granted his petition to consider the following issues:

“(1) Whether the law officer erred in instructing the court that it appeared no issue of wrongful appropriation had arisen.
“(2) Whether the accused was prejudiced by the references of trial counsel in argument to the silence of the accused during the investigation of the theft and recovery of the money.”
