EXCLUSIVE: Even as the U.S. military denies reports that American troops were told to ignore Afghan child abusers, an 11-year Green Beret who was ordered discharged after he confronted an alleged rapist was informed Tuesday that the Army has denied his appeal.
Sgt. 1st Class Charles Martland earlier this year was ordered discharged by Nov. 1. He has been fighting to stay in, but in an initial decision, the U.S. Army Human Resources Command told Martland that his appeal “does not meet the criteria” for an appeal.
“Consequently, your request for an appeal and continued service is disapproved,” the office wrote in a memo to Martland.
The memo was shared with FoxNews.com by the office of Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif., who has advocated for Martland’s case. According to Hunter's office, Martland learned of the decision Tuesday.
The memo, dated Sept. 14, comes as the Defense Department comes under criticism amid reports that U.S. soldiers were instructed to look the other way when Afghan troops and officers were sexually abusing boys.
Gen. John F. Campbell, commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, said in a statement Tuesday that he is “absolutely confident that no such theater policy has ever existed here, and certainly, no such policy has existed throughout my tenure as commander.”

There is nothing that our government says that can be believed without independent verification, and that now includes, unfortunately, the military as well.
Did he have a jury of did the judge decide? I’m at work and can’t access the entire article.
OK Trump, Carson, Fiorina, Cruz & Huckabee - you better jump on this one NOW and shout it to the mountain tops!
I’m sorry FRiend, I may be wrong about the CM. I’ve been looking and can’t find a reference to one, I was sure there was on but now I’m not sure. I’ll keep looking and ping you if I find out one way or the other.
No jury in a Court-Martial but a board of officers from 1 to 5 and/or a judge.
It is not under the criminal justice system, but under the UCMJ. Civil law and Military law differs somewhat.
He was not courts-martialed, I just found this in the linked article which explains the entire chain of events.
excerpt:
“Martland, though, has been fighting to stay in the Army. In February 2015, the Army conducted a “Qualitative Management Program” review board. His supporters suspect because Martland had a “relief for cause” evaluation in his service record, the U.S. Army ordered Martland to be “involuntary discharged” from the Army by Nov. 1, 2015.”
Yep. It is why homosexuals and Marxists love islam. Their “ethics” of sodomy will collapse Western Civilization and destroy it-—the worldview of all children raised in such a toxic culture of Marxism will end in total irrationality— where Up is Down, boys are girls, and Vice is celebrated and Virtue is condemned. All ideas which gave abstract thinking and Individual Natural Rights from God will be ENDED.
They are flipping Good and Evil on purpose to destroy Christianity—normalizing the practice of sodomy in our boys to fixate them in latency and puerile stages (so they will have minds like Afghani males and lust after males and boys and goats and hate and mutilate women.)
Without Virtue (Christian Virtue), there is no Freedom. Vice promotes slavery and chaos only. The ancient Greeks even knew this truth. The Cultural Marxists who took over “education” in the 30s knew to destroy Virtue and corrupt the children-—and they will OWN them. All they had to do was to corrupt the children (destroy Wisdom/education and blur Truth/God to destroy Christianity).
Parents can take your children away from the Group Think factories and the TVs that embed evil emotions and desires NOW.....24/7....Bothn destroy Virtue formation in children and flip 2000 years of ethics to the satanic, muslim ones where pederasty, homosexuality, baby-rape and killing and polygamy were all normal and rampant They were ALL “Collective” cultures-—peasants/serf and slave mindsets like Afghani male minds. Totally irrational and evil and puerile-—no abstract, profound thinking can ever occur.
Translation...I know nothing, I see nothing, and no one told me.
Yep, that is all they need. Senior leadership can be a vicious bunch of As----es.
Right on, it’s really sick.
Big picture...how many white, conservative parents are reading this and deciding that maybe junior should just skip that military thing?
The military of today certainly isn’t the military I as part of. I’m afraid that odumbo has all be crippled that corps completely. DAMN HIM FOREVER!!!!
I hear you. Most all with any common sense and it’s a shame.
When the muslim phony American in the WH is replaced with someone who doesn’t hate our country hopefully it will change.
And a whole lot of the ‘Faithful’. Muzzies kill more muzzies than anything else. Great culture.
So much for teaching soldiers “Army Values” and expecting them to live by them. What the two captains and SFC Martland saw and stopped was inline with Army values that are taught in basic training, all Army schools and included as part of the officer and non-commissioned officer efficiency reports.
Army Values are now centered on homosexuality, pedophelia and transgender lifestyles.
Active Duty ping.
Well said.
He should stay in shape and re-apply when there is a new Commander -In-Chief
0vomit will soon give him an additional title; Boyfinder General..
