A couple thoughts.
Thomas was held in a brig (including an improvised brig that was a toilet-less conex box out in the sun) for more than a year. So he wasn’t spared prison time by the Marine authorities.
Rob Pennington copped a plea and is serving eight years in prison at Miramar. Lesson learned: Playing ball gets you screwed.
“Thomas was held in a brig (including an improvised brig that was a toilet-less conex box out in the sun) for more than a year.”
So the P C Police treat another Marine hero like a dog!!
Man, I’m pissed off!!
