2. 15 minutes there... He's probably made plans of everyone's home. What's wrong with being nice?

3. I find it interesting that his demeanor changed a bit and the video ended

as the two black women walk up the street. A drill sergeant being a bully, using his size to intimidate. Hope he enjoys his slowly dissolving career.

4. His wife sounds like a massive piece of shit too.

Assholes are drawn to each other I guess. Fuck them both.

COLUMBIA — Fort Jackson Army Sgt. Jonathan Pentland, recently convicted of third-degree assault and battery, is moving to a new station, Fort Jackson officials announced Friday.

A judge found Pentland guilty in late August, concluding a criminal case that began as a viral video that sparked protests and widespread social media outrage in April.

According to an emailed statement, "Pentland has fulfilled his assignment obligation at Fort Jackson and is preparing to move to his next permanent duty station."

Fort Jackson Commander Brig. Gen. Patrick R. Michaelis said in the statement, "The Richland County trial is complete. We are the nation's Army and we continue to value and strengthen our shared trust with our local communities.

Soldiers are trained to conduct themselves in a respectful manner and adhere to the Army values. They are also held accountable when they do not."
