Wons . lit fro Army not seriously concerned over trainee abuse, study Hi US United Press International WASHINGTON — Army drill sergeants need greater supervision and their commanding officers should be held accountable for any abuse of recruits, a House Armed Services subcommittee says. The subcommittee’s report was issued Wednesday, following an in vestigation into the deaths of two young soldiers. Despite the 1978 deaths and other incidents of abuse, the study said, the Army is not se riously concerned about the problem of trainee abuse. The deaths at Fort Jackson, S.C., and incidents at Fort Dix, N. J., were “attributable mainly to the lack of effective supervision of drill sergeants at Army training centers, ” the report said. Another incident was reported the following month at Fort Dix, N.J., where 20 recruits were subjected to systematic abuse. eSoutl about trainee abuse,’’he saitl The two Fort Jackson trainees died within hours of reporting to the base on June 29, 1978. Despite the intense heat and high humidity that day, the trainees generally were sub jected to strenuous exercise, harass ment and abuse, investigations later showed. Rep. Sam Stratton, D-N.Y., sub committee chairman, noted that fol lowing the Fort Jackson deaths, “no officer above the rank of captain was disciplined for that tragedy, let alone being court martialed.” The subcommittee said! officers, including colonelsa manding generals, “also irJ held responsible for abuse{ occurs in their commands. “The very light sentences imposed on the sergeants found guilty of the deaths demonstrate that the Army is still not really seriously concerned At Fort Jackson, onedrilh was convicted of manslaugkj dereliction of duty and wasd sentenced to six months haiJH and forfeited two-thirds of hup six months.
