Army rejects appeal from soldier discharged after confronting accused Afghan rapist

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.”

U.S. Soldiers Told to Ignore Sexual Abuse of Boys by Afghan Allies

Obama experienced pedophile rape at the Indonesian maddrassah according to a Christian woman lecturer.

His nine years under Frank Marshall Davis are an additional factor, as is the twenty years in Wright's Down-Low Lounge.

His confrontational guests selected to offend the Pope are consistent with his policy in Afghanistan--and his attempts to sell homosexuality in Kenya.

The schools are the domestic battleground where sex education becomes debased and pushed on ever younger victims.

Behold a Marxist-Muslim cokehead closet queen in the Oval Office imposing gay marriage and child rape with the force of the state.

Not to mention the core values of our Judeo-Christian Tradition that underlie our Freedoms, for which so many have toiled and bled through the centuries!

"I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces guarding our country and our way of life.
I am prepared to give my life in their defense."

It just gets worse and worse. The military services have been ruined.

The Obama Pentagon is absolutely committed to destroying the US military.

I haven’t read the comments yet, but I’ll bet we’ll be hearing from all the patriotic people who think it will be great to have their kids serve in today’s armed forces. (Or maybe it should be “armed forces.”)

My version is more succinct, not to criticize G-d’s version.;-)

Stalin *shot* members of his officer and non commissioned officer corps.Obola knows he can't do that so he discharges (or imprisons) them.
