Discharge Likely For Alliance Recruiting Officer
Sergeant John Walker of Alliance faces a likely honorable discharge from the United States Army after a court case in Alliance. He and Edna Pickering were charged with fornication. Pickering pleaded guilty and received a suspended fine, while Walker received a $50 fine and jail time due to lack of funds. Walker chose dishonorable discharge over a court martial, with possible early release to save county costs, and Colonel Cavanaugh advised covering his uniform with overalls as a disguise for duty remaining. Sergeant Weir now leads the local recruiting station.
