Marines pick up AWOL Hering in Washington
Rocky Mountain News ^ | November 22, 2008

A Marine escort picked up Lance Cpl. Lance Hering at the Clallam County jail ...to take the AWOL Marine to Camp Pendleton in San Diego...

Port Angeles police officers arrested Lance Cpl. Hering — who may face desertion charges after staging his disappearance in Colorado and spending 26 months in hiding — last Sunday at William R. Fairchild International Airport in Port Angeles.

Hering was reported missing in August 2006. A friend said Hering had wandered off after he was injured in a rock-climbing accident near Boulder.

After a massive search, authorities concluded the report was a hoax.

Another loser dirtbag off to get his just rewards. As a former Marine, I am disgusted with his actions.

While other Marines are laying their lives on the line for us, this "man" runs and hides from the responsibilites of the job he voluntarily took.

Dishonorable. Cowardly. Vermin. Completely unworthy of the title of Marine or man.

Let him rot in jail.

Hering is nothing but a pondscum deserter and deserves a long sentence at Leavenworth.

That’s good, he probably deserves it because I have a hard time believing he didn’t know the whereabouts of his son all that time.

Thanks, george.

It’s probably pretty big news at Pendleton, too.
James Culp is his attorney.

Back in the fall of 2004, our unit had a guy go AWOL from Pendleton, just before they left. I kind of think that Karl might have been assigned to his particular unit because they were short a man, possibly because of this. That really makes one pause and consider...

I thought about adding a graphic, but after yours, why even try. :-)

BTW, what’s that smell?
