Iraq veteran rejects Marine deal over protest actions
Liam Madden, 22, an Iraq War veteran and member of Iraq Veterans Against the War, rejected a Marine Corps offer to end a discharge hearing by agreeing to stop wearing his uniform at protests and to state his statements were not disloyal or inaccurate. The case involves alleged disloyal statements made during a New York speech and a protest in which Madden wore uniform parts. Madden contends IRR status exempts him from military rules, while officials consider possible outcomes including no discharge. Madden is touring East Coast military installations with fellow veterans including Adam Kokesh.
