Three US Army soldiers stationed in South Korea were fined and moved to a lower rank after they were reportedly caught sneaking off base to visit a nearby bar before returning “through a hole in the installation’s fence” during the pandemic.

The soldiers stationed at Camp Humphreys were demoted to the rank of private, lost $866 per month for two months, and were placed under other restrictions for up to 45 days.

“Doing the wrong thing has serious consequences,” according to a statement from the 19th Expeditionary Sustainment Command. “Don’t risk everyone’s safety and our ability to complete our mission because you can’t follow orders.”

The punishments were announced on social media “to ensure our soldiers, civilians, contract employees and their families understand the ramifications of not following the commander’s directives” during the pandemic.
