Thanks for the reply. Sounds like a fucking nightmare, and I'm even more glad than before that I didn't enlist now.
If you or any of your fellow 10 who have documentation of what happened, it's a huge case as far as lawsuits could go, at least in the future.
You should tell this story to the board here sometime, and even to Patriots.win - whenever you're comfortable. Loads of people would appreciate it and have your back, and others behind enemy lines who let themselves be coerced might get the balls to speak out.
Thus far, not many stories of this caliber are out there. Truly, one of the most important things I've read on this board.
Yes it was pretty much a total fucking nightmare. There was all sorts of games being played: like when they'd take me in to bitch at me; theyd make me bring an ESL(English second language) as a witness , so I'd basically have no witness. Or when I filed an EO(equal opportunity) complaint for religious discrimination ( they'd talk mad shit on Christianity, say fuck your God, etc); they pulled in the sergeant I filed it on and she tried to intimidate me into withdrawing it; saying shed file one back because this was clearly about her being a black Muslim woman, and she said she'd win that fight no doubt. (I had no idea her religious background). The commander basically said the same thing, he said " you really think this is gonna go somewhere, against a Muslim?". Apparently this is only at ft sill though, from what I've heard they get the most complaints of any base in America, and they're the only one not letting people progress through basic while waiting for a waiver
