Army doctor rejects major promotion during protest
Capt Walter Grote, 33, an Army internist, refused a promotion at Fort Dix to protest how West Point day care abuse charges were handled. He cited upbringing of 11 children aged 13 months to 3½ years suspected of abuse and said the Army ignored victims. Col Edward Burkhalter noted free speech while others defended the process. The case was investigated by CID and FBI after initial Army handling. The Grotes urged closing the day care and offering counseling. Grote will forgo about $4,000 in pay this year.
