Army Charges 7 in Sex-For-Money Web Site

Update on last month’s Fort Bragg investigation of seven paratroopers’ inappropriate conduct that appear tied to Dink Flamingo’s Active Duty which showcases real military men.
The Army has charged seven paratroopers from the celebrated 82nd Airborne Division with engaging in sex acts in video shown on a Web site, authorities said Friday.
Three of the soldiers face courts-martial on charges of sodomy, pandering and engaging in sex acts for money, according to a statement released by the military. The three soldiers who face courts-martial are: Spc. Richard T. Ashley, Pfc. Wesley K. Mitten and Pvt. Kagen B. Mullen. The Army did not release their ages or hometowns, but said all seven paratroopers were members of the 2nd Battalion of the 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment.
The Army has recommended that all be discharged.
Four other soldiers received what the military calls nonjudicial punishments. These four were not identified. Their punishments included reduction to the rank of private, 45 days of restriction to the unit area, 45 days of extra duty and forfeiture of a month’s pay.
