Ousted from Army for Adam's Old Sin
Private Bernard Leiser of Battery D Third Field Artillery was discharged, sentenced to six months hard labor, and deprived of pay after court-martial found him guilty of disobeying orders and eating green apples while marching from Mount Airy Maryland toward Laytonsville Maryland. The decision, announced at Army Headquarters, notes the seriousness of drinking and eating forbidden fruit amid thirst as a reason for the punishment. The testimony cites three specifications: eating apples after orders, disobeying disposal orders, and falsely claiming an unrelated authorization.
