Acquittal Of Lieut.. Campbell.
Second Lieut.. Bruce r. Campbell. Cd In
fantry. was recently acquitted by general
court martial convened at Fort Thomas.
KY. Of the charge of conduct to the pref
udice of good order and military disci-
pline. II was alleged that Lieut. Camp
bell used threatening language toward
First Lieut.. Robert D. Carter and at
tempted to intimidate him in connection
with the details Of the daily roster Of the
national match at Camp Perry, Ohio, Of
which Lieut.. Carter was an assistant adj
jutant. The language which Lieut.. Camp
bell is said to have used toward Lieut..
Carter was as follows:
You tried to make me out a liar and
want satisfaction out of you
Maj. Cen. Grant, comman ding the De-
partment of the Lakes. approved the
6nding OF the court, subject to the re-
mark that, although the evidence failed
show that the language cited was used
with the intention OF illuminating Lieut.
Garter, "the threatening language and
conduct of Lieut.. Campbell was prejudi-
cial to good order and military discipline
and should have been so found by the
court.
