The military said the maximum penalty would have been 10 years in jail, a dishonorable discharge and loss of all pay.
...
That sounds about right. Why was he let off so easily?

He needs to do time in Leavenworth.
No kidding. I suspect he’s in a “protected” class somehow.

If this had been combat he would have shot for sabotage.

"Three Humvees cost $500?"
No, the code makes destruction of property worth over $500 a more serious offense, so if you want to charge someone with this more serious offense you charge them destruction of property worth over $500. Whether the property is actually worth $510 or $50,000 its the same charge.

The video and comments (100% )lack the one basic quality of innocent coincidence.
The video was made in 100% knowledge and anticipation. Premeditated.

You can bet that, had he made one off-handed remark to a transgender squad member, he’d have been sent away for years. But not for deliberate destruction of our property.

Never been on a drop zone I take it?
Soldier does a bad PLF and breaks his leg? Don’t expect any sympathy from those who watched it.
I saw a full pallet of C Rations burn in. Looked just like an A Bomb going off. Lots of “Oh”, “Ah’s” and other comments on that one.

Lots of Oh, Ahs and other comments on that one.Pulled LZ duty at Ft Campbell with the 101st in '67 for test drops of pallet loaded 55gal drums of water training for fuel drops. Had more than a few side straps break resulting in 4 to 8 barrels coming down like bombs. Learned to keep the jeep running watching the sky with the foot on the clutch after popping smoke for the pilots. 55 gal metal drum looked like a pancake after they hit.

Give him to the navy and let them use him for catapult practice. They got the new cool electromagnetic ones now.
