At least prosecute him for shitty rap.
This is gonna piss him off pretty bad.
“The dismissal for misconduct means Spc. Marc A. Hall will avoid criminal charges but lose all military benefits earned over at least four years of service, including an earlier tour in Iraq.”
How does this differ from anyone else discharged for misconduct?
What benefits could he have earned other than GI Bill and VA Medical care?
Is the point of this story that we should all feel sorry for this guy? So lets just go ahead and give him the GI Bill and VA Medical care for life. In fact why not just give him a freakin’ pension? And how about the writer of the article gets to pay for it?
Can’t really feel sorry. The last line there about “No remorse” was so fitting - the US Government has no remorse for firing his sorry ass either.
A 34 year old E-4. No loss.
Real cute making a song about killing US soldiers. What a creep. He did this to get out of the military and it worked. In the meantime, he is the jihadi sympathizers’ hero. Another “freedom fighter” for Islam.
Yeah 4 years isn’t going to get you any benefits.
Maybe some tuition cash for a while but that is about it.
The whole thing is don’t write shitty rap songs about the war,don’t threaten fellow soldiers and don’t make a scene about going back over there.
Hell if you don’t want to go,tell them you either wet the bed on a regular basis or have decided that your conversion to Islam may stop you from doing your job.
They’ll understand.
