While I see some purpose in the rule, I think the punishment is a little over the top.

There are other ways to punish him. The method they are talking about in this article is too permanent, and IMO too extreme.

Would any other military guy who did something similar, but was not up for discharge, have had his punishment put on hold until he was discharged so that the same punishment would be meted out?
