SHAAREY Alleged Bias Against Marine Recruit Not Substantiated, Investigator Reports A Detroiter who was concerned over news reports of alleged mis- treatment of a Jewish recruit at the Parris Island, S.C., Marine Corps recruit depot, has been con- tacted by the Marine Corps inspec- tor general, who reported the re- sults of an investigation into the case. Allen Warsen of Parklawn Ave., Oak Park, received the report from Brig. Gen. E. S. Fris after Warsen had sent a letter of protest to U.S. Secretary of Defense Melvin R. Laird last fall. The original news report claimed that the young recruit had suffered a mental breakdown as a result of brutal treatment at the hands of anti-Semitic drill instructors at the training base. According to the inspector gen- eral, however, the private's allega- tions have not been substantiated and, in fact, physicians at the U.S. Naval Hospital at Charleston "de- termined during interview that Private had been receiving psychiatric treatment as far back as May 1968, before he joined the Marine Corps." Two months after the recruit— described initially as having "ex- ceptional intelligence"—was as- signed to his platoon, he evinced certain behavior that prompted his superiors to recommend psy- chiatric observation and treat- ment, the report claims. "It has been administratively de- termined that the former Jewish chaplain at the Parris Island Re- cruit Depot interviewed Private on a routine basis on 10 April 1969," Fris' letter states. "This former chaplain states that he did not then receive, nor did he at any other time receive, any complaint or reports of alleged bigotry or maltreatment from or concerning Private "Additionally, it was determined that at no time during the two- month period that he was under ob- servation at the U.S. Naval Hospi- tal in Charleston, South Carolina, did he mention to his physican any specific incidents of alleged bigotry or maltreatment." The recruit was discharged from the Marine Corps "under honor- able conditions for medical rea- sons" and was confined to the North Shore Mental Hospital in New York for psychiatric treat- ment. Rep. Mario Biaggi of New York, charged last fall that witnesses in the recruit's platoon confirmed that the young man "was systematically brutalized by drill instructors be- cause he is Jewish." In his letter to Warsen, the in- spector general said the charges have not been substantiated but 0:I 4 *relay; Febirubly to; . 1970-29 JWV Mrs. Dorothy Goldberg, president of the Jewish War Veterans Ladies Auxiliary, announces a department meeting will be held 8:30 p.m. Thursday at JWV headquarters.
