“The individual, senior (19th Special Forces non-commissioned officer), that provided the access has been relieved of his leadership position, and a general officer letter of reprimand has been initiated,” Lt. Col. Steven Fairbourn, spokesman for the Utah National Guard said. “He is being mandated to retire earlier than is scheduled.”

The other three guardsmen will receive lesser punishments depending on their level of involvement. The $200 cost for fuel used during the making of the video is being repaid by the officers involved. Fairbourn said general officer letters of reprimand have also been issued to some of those involved.

Fairbourn added, “This is an error in judgment that occurred with a limited few individuals, and we as your Utah Guard stand committed and resolved to serve our state and our nation. This is a small aspect in a much larger picture.”
