Bad Conduct? It’s criminal destruction of Federal property. Dishonorable discharge and charge him with Federal Property damage at the least.

No only that there should be extra charge of excessive stupidity. Did he think nobody would notice?

One in 100,000 is a statistic, 3 on 1 drop is sabotage. Glad nobody was killed or injured on the ground. There’s no mitigating circumstances. 100% of the maximum sentence.

I know not funny, but for some reason I’m laughing at the thought of these vehicles dropping straight to the ground.

You have to wonder if this soldier was on drugs to do something so deliberate, destructive and stupid.
What he did (repeatedly) takes a lot of concentrated effort.
It’s not like flipping a switch or just dropping a single strap.

“All this for a sight gag?”

That’s why I think the video taker is totally complicit and deserved more than a reprimand.

Heck, we see when a guy gets nailed in the stones, other guys kind of joke and laugh about it, albeit somewhat nervously...

"He needs to do time in Leavenworth."

Yes, needs hard labor busting rocks for 15 years. Somebody could have been killed by a large dropped item falling at excessive speeds. Crazy. Plus the guy laughing with the video camera needs a special "tune up" too.

And I remember when I got reprimanded by a E-6 for not finishing eating my spaghetti and meat balls C rations during a field exercise in Germany 45 years ago.
