Gen. John Evans] and other commanding generals across Fort Knox are preparing to issue approximately 40 General Officer Memoranda of Reprimand to individuals found to have violated General Order Number 1, dated 17 May 2021,\u201d said Fort Knox spokesperson Kyle Hodges in a statement emailed to Army Times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GOMORs are a dreaded form of administrative punishment considered to be a \u201ccareer-killer\u201d when included in a soldier\u2019s permanent personnel file, though the Army has faced criticism in the past for utilizing them and other administrative punishments in lieu of court-martial proceedings for more serious infractions of discipline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reprimands are among the first publicly-acknowledged punishments for U.S. troops who have declined the COVID-19 vaccine but failed to wear masks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><i>\u201c<\/i>We have soldiers on the installation who are unvaccinated, but are judiciously and conscientiously following masking guidelines,\u201d Hodges said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fort Knox officials did not specify whether the GOMORs would be filed in the offenders\u2019 permanent records or merely retained locally and then destroyed once the soldiers were reassigned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But in line with current Defense Department and Army policy, <a href=\"https:\/\/home.army.mil\/knox\/application\/files\/6916\/2142\/7903\/FKKY_General_Order_1_-_17_May_2021.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">the Fort Knox general order<\/a> requires that troops who have declined the COVID-19 vaccine wear masks when inside of public facilities on post. The order also states that \u201call persons on Fort Knox may be required to show proof of vaccination in order to access and remain in Fort Knox workplaces and facilities without wearing a mask.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the order, vaccinated soldiers do not need to wear face masks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The unvaccinated, unmasked personnel were directly caught by Fort Knox senior leaders while trying to enter public buildings on-post, Hodges said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIn just a matter of hours last week, during random inspections, senior Fort Knox leaders identified several dozen unvaccinated individuals attempted to enter on-post facilities such as the Shoppette and Post Exchange without masks,\u201d Hodges said. \u201cThese unmasked individuals failed to provide proof of vaccination.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fort Knox officials insisted that the move was directly related to protecting troops against the virus, especially its new Delta variant, which seemingly infects even fully vaccinated people with ease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBy law and regulation, the senior commander at each installation is responsible for the maintenance of good order and discipline, including force health protection,\u201d Hodges added. \u201cAs the Delta variant of COVID-19 spreads rapidly across the nation, Fort Knox leaders must continue to ensure the health and safety of those working on the installation and also protect the surrounding community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fort Knox is home to more than 25,000 soldiers assigned to Cadet Command, Recruiting Command, Human Resources Command, and 1st Theater Sustainment Command, among others according to its website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hodges said the punishment were a matter of standards, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAt the core, this is about enforcing standards and taking care of people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><i>Editor\u2019s note: This article has been updated to clarify that the punishments meted out to soldiers were for those who declined the COVID-19 vaccine and also failed to follow masking guidelines, not because those soldiers refused vaccination. <\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dozens of soldiers are facing formal reprimands after senior
