Charged with violating the no-souvenirs order, failing to report and turn over captured property, conduct unbecoming an officer and making false statements, McMillion was sentenced to one year confinement, and a discharge from the military.

The judge, Colonel Ronald Gregory, recommended a waiver from forfeiture of Gregory's pay.
