Army to reopen Slavik case in bid to clear name
Wray-A spokesman says the Army Board of Corrections will reopen hearings into Pvt. Eddie Slavik's 1943 desertion execution. The widow seeks to change records so she can receive $10,000 life insurance, with possible total of about $70,000 including interest. A new witness, Rabbi David Maxlechhorn, claims an intensive psychiatric examination was ordered, but Army officials disputed his account.
