10th Mtn. soldier seeks mistreatment probe
Mar 10, 2008 — A 10th Mountain Division soldier planned to turn himself in Friday after he went AWOL to avoid deployment to Iraq. But according to the Watertown Daily Times, 21 year-old Specialist Brian Currie became agitated as he approached Fort Drum and decided he couldn't go through with it. Currie says a military doctor ruled him unfit for deployment from injuries sustained in Afghanistan. He and 4 other soldiers are requesting a military court of inquiry investigate allegations of harassment and mistreatment. David Sommerstein reports.
