admitted forcing Grant recruits
to suspend themselves over naked
bayonets was sentenced today to
a year at hard labor and bad
conduct discharge.
Pfc. Frederick A. Renton, 10, of
New York City, paled slightly as
he heard the sentence that also
called for forfeiture of further
pay. His mother, sitting in the
courtroom, apparently failed to
grasp the meaning of the sentence
as it was read.
A 10-member general court
martial yesterday convicted Rem
ton on two of IA charges Of mall
treatment.
Renton admitted making two
recruits, Privates Robert ]. Palai-
sa and Clement R. Ploof Jr.,

tions.
