ANCHORAGE, Alaska — A senior Coast Guard official was charged Tuesday with multiple offenses, including sodomy, indecent acts and conduct unbecoming of an officer and gentleman.

The Coast Guard filed 31 violations of the Uniform Code of Military Justice against Capt. Herbert Hamilton.

It did not provide details of the alleged offenses, which also include fraud, adultery, indecent language and soliciting another to commit an offense.

Hamilton, who is also known as Mark, could not be reached for comment Tuesday.

He was removed in May from his duties as the Coast Guard's commander for the Anchorage sector. At the time, the Coast Guard cited alleged misconduct and a loss of confidence in Hamilton's ability to command.

During the Coast Guard's preliminary investigation, he was temporarily assigned to the staff of the 17th Coast Guard District, which covers Alaska.

Coast Guard officials said the charges will be heard at a formal hearing where Hamilton will have the right to question witnesses. A date has not been set.

Coast Guard spokesman Lt. Eric Eggen said an investigating officer at the hearing will look into the allegations and recommend how the case should proceed. Possibilities include trying those or other charges at a general court-martial or dropping the charges altogether.

Eggen said the final determination will be made by Rear Adm. Christopher Colvin, district commander.

Hamilton took the Anchorage position in August 2008 and previously served as deputy commander for Coast Guard operations in the Los Angeles area.

The Anchorage role includes diverse duties, such as verifying compliance of fishing vessels in the Gulf of Alaska and the Bering Sea inspecting vessels transporting freight and passengers between the Lower 48 and western Alaska.

Another mission is inspecting waterfront facilities, tank ships and barges associated with the oil industry.

The book
They are throwing it at him

It ain't gay if you're underway.

Ohh Damn!

The case about sodomy will be decided by a Rear Admiral.

But it's queer at the pier.

He was just kickin' it old school Navy.

Frigging in the rigging.

In response to questions from the press about the sodomy charge the coast guard spokesmen replied "This isn't the Navy, we don't tolerate that shit!"

Sodomy has several definitions under the UCMJ.

The military also considers blow jobs sodomy so he could have had some hot female enlisted under his command and received a number of blow jobs from same.

It will come out later that his shenanigans have been going on for years but were overlooked or flat covered up for years.

Saw that.


 

When there was a shake up 9 months ago and he was ousted quick my boss said "It's either sex or money, they don't do his sort of think if you'd been drinking."

I guess he is right.

Negating the previously undefeatable "Just the tip" defense



 

Sodomy under the UCMJ is commonly any thing not the missionary position.  I saw article 15s for blow jobs between consenting adults.

Blow job= sodomy
Anal sex= odomy
Dirty sanchez= sodomy
rusty tombone= sodomy
donkey kick= sodomy

To Hell with it....in on one.  

Isn't the USCG under the Dept. of Homeland Security now?

Interesting the Uniform Code of Military Justice still applies to them.

Well, I guess skull fucking someone is out then.

Gunny Hartman will be disappointed





 

USCG is dual-mission as far as 'higher authority', but they are always under UCMJ...





 

You know, they bring up "any opening in the body" after covering ass and mouth.

Ears? Nose?

IT'S NOT GAY, IF YOU ARE ANGRY.

So if he got a blow job from his wife he could still get UCMJ charge?

Not even one "poop deck" joke yet

Yes.

Damn, may as well thrown a "Buggery" charge at him too.

No...but if the BJ was from Rick, Steve or Brucie, then the boy is in deep poo poo.

Didn't know the Coasties had a Cutter named the Ragin Queen.

Open wounds.  Alarmingly, there is a movie about this.

Heavy penalty for a snarlin'

The UCMJ applied to us back when we were created under the Department of the Treasury, and later under the Department of Transportation. Nothing has changed under the Department of Homeland Security, except now we work for Janet. The USCG can be transferred to  the Department of the Navy by the President or Congress during time of war. The UCMJ applies at ALL times, no matter what Department we function under, no matter how small or strange of an infraction.

Like another poster said, it's possible the captain was cheating with a hot enlisted (female) sailor. That would take care of the sodomy and adultery charges right there. It doesn't mean that he was doing the local gay dude. We aren't the Navy after all.

There goes "I'm gonna tear out your eyes and skull fuck you"

Damn, what's the world coming to?

The UCMJ has some fucked-up retarded shit in it.

In theory yes.
