Appeal Set in Death of Marine Recruit
In San Diego Col. R A Seymour, former commander of the Recruit Training Regiment, plans to appeal a letter of reprimand from Maj. Gen. Kenneth J. Houghton after being reassigned.

Seymour claims Houghton should have disqualified himself due to their shared command, noting he was only party to the formal investigation not charged. He learned of his involvement on Feb 18, the day before appearing at the investigation.
