The Lieutenant still has a court martial conviction on his record regardless of the punishment given.
He did this to himself. He could have shown up for work with a mask or via telework. He disobeyed those orders
The brother
I say again...There is hope that when sanity returns (if ever) the conviction will be expunged.
That’s the one.
