Don M. George of Ft Wayne, an enlisted marine, was court martialed at League Island for absence without leave and conduct prejudicial to discipline. His sentence of dishonorable discharge and one year imprisonment was commuted to eight months by Assistant Secretary Winthrop on Beveridge's request, with good conduct likely reducing time to five months. He was praised as popular in Ft Wayne and his case avoided desertion charges due to Beveridge intercession.
