He was not actively participating in the protest, but his image was captured as he walked home from work near the location where some of the recent anti-police\/&#8221;Black Lives Matter&#8221;\/Freddie Gray protests have taken place,&#8221; according to a statement posted on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/supporttheaction\" title=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/supporttheaction\">15th Sustainment Brigade <\/a>Facebook page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The soldier in the photo was wearing the brigade&#8217;s patch on his right sleeve, and the brigade received numerous messages on its Facebook page after the photo was posted on several military or veterans Facebook sites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The photo, which was taken from a local Baltimore television news report, was posted on sites such as U.S. Army W.T.F.! Moments, according to the statement from the 15th Sustainment Brigade<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many social media users quickly blasted the soldier for participating in the protest while in uniform, with some calling for him to be punished via court-martial.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Col. Charles Kohler, a spokesman for the Maryland Guard, confirmed to Army Times that the soldier works at Cade Armory, which is very close to where the protests were taking place this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Every indication is that he is a solid soldier. He knows, and so does his chain of command, it was a case of bad timing,&#8221; he said. &#8220;He was walking home from work and saw the demonstration and stopped as they walked by, and then someone took his picture.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Up to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.armytimes.com\/story\/military\/guard-reserve\/2015\/04\/28\/national-guard-baltimore-riots\/26505797\/\" title=\"http:\/\/www.armytimes.com\/story\/military\/guard-reserve\/2015\/04\/28\/national-guard-baltimore-riots\/26505797\/\">2,000 Maryland Guard soldiers<\/a> and airmen were expected to arrive in Baltimore by evening on April 28 in response to riots and violence in the city April 27<span class=\"rte rte-comment\">Monday night<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rioters torched a pharmacy, set police cars on fire and threw bricks at police officers hours after thousands mourned Freddie Gray, who died from a severe spinal injury he suffered while in police custody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday&#8217;s riot was the latest flare-up over the mysterious death of Gray, whose fatal encounter with officers came amid the national debate over police use of force, especially when black suspects are involved. Gray was African-American. Police have declined to specify the races of the six officers involved in his arrest, all of whom have been suspended with pay while they are under investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan declared a state of emergency and called in the National Guard to help restore order. Authorities also <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">have <\/span>put in place a weeklong, daily curfew beginning <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">Tuesday <\/span>April 28 from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Guard will be in place for &#8220;as long as it takes,&#8221; said Rick Breitenfeldt, a spokesman for the National Guard Bureau.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The troops, who are mostly military police soldiers plus a handful of airmen, will provide security, conduct presence patrols and support infrastructure security, Breitenfeldt said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plans currently call for about 2,000 Guard troops to support authorities in Baltimore, but the Maryland Guard has up to 5,000 troops available to respond if needed, he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A soldier shown wearing his uniform at a protest in Baltimore, Maryland, was &#8220;not actively
