Three Marines discharged
for joining neo-Nazi rallies
NEW YORK (JTA)—Three
United States Marines at Camp
Lejeune have been discharged for
participating in paramilitary exer
cises and rallies in North Carolina
staged by a violence-prone, neo-
Nazi group, it was disclosed by the
Anti-Defamation League of B’nai
B’rith.
The action followed a letter of
inquiry to U.S. Defense Secretary
Caspar Weinberger by ADL nation
al director Nathan Perlmutter.
The ADL. said it had been in
formed by the defense secretary
that the three have been dismissed
from the corps following initial
reports that they were “involved in
activities of the White Patriot
Party,” formerly known as the Con
federate Knights of Ku Klux Klan.
An investigation into “allegations
of misconduct” is still continuing,
Weinberger told the ADL. The
Defense Department is seeking to
determine whether other Marines
were involved in White Patriot
activities in North Carolina and if
they had any connection with the
Party’s paramilitary activities.
Perlmutter, a former Marine,
commended the Defense Depart
ment for “its swift and decisive
action to prevent the Marine Corps
mission to defend the freedom of
all Americans from being tar
nished.”
In his letter to the ADL, Wein
berger declared that the Defense
Department “deplores the violence
and bigotry of the Ku Klux Klan
and organizations like it." He
added: “The Department of Defense
is committed to the equality of
treatment to all personnel, regard
less of race, sex, national origin or
religion. In our view, prejudice and
intolerance are incompatible with
accomplishment of our military
mission.”
Perlmutter said the ADL had
been told by the Defense Depart
ment that, under its current policy,
military personnel can be dis
charged for participating in the fol-
lowing activities of extremist
groups: marching in a parade,
making public speeches in support
of racial discrimination, becoming
involved in their management or
organization or helping to recruit
membership.

“Get your best price then call

I can beat your best price.”
An official of the legal office of
the assistant secretary of Defense
for Force, Management and Per
sonnel, told the ADL the Defense
Department is reviewing policy to
determine whether current regula
tions regarding participation in hate
group activities are “complete and
adequate.”
In his inquiry to the Defense
Department, Perlmutter pointed
out that the leader of the White
Patriot Party, F. Glenn Miller, had
publicly threatened armed revolu
tion against American elected offi
cials.
“Particularly troublesome,” the
ADL official wrote, “is the possib-
lity that U.S. Marines could be
providing this gang with weapons
or explosives to which they have
access.”
Perlmutter said the ADL had
learned that former California Klan
leader Tom Metzger recently had
written to San Diego-based U.S.
military commanders inviting them
to join the “The White American
Political Association.” The com
manding officer of the San Diego
naval base informed the ADL that
those military commanders solicited
by Metzger have been directed not
to respond to him.
The Navy in 1979, the ADL offi
cial noted, took steps to prevent
the Klan from recruiting sailors in
the Norfolk, Va., area. It trans
ferred a sailor involved in organiz
ing a Klan rally and declared the
rally off-limits to Navy and Marine
personnel. Chief of Naval Opera
tions Admiral Thomas Hayward
issued an order at that time stating
that “prejudice and preparedness
are incompatible.”
