FORT MEADE, Md. — The commander of the Military District of Washington is
affirming the six-month prison sentence of an Army doctor who disobeyed
deployment orders because he doubted President Barack Obama’s eligibility
to serve as commander-in-chief.

A spokeswoman said Friday that Army Maj. Gen. Karl Horst has approved the
findings and sentence of Lt. Col. Terrence Lakin’s court-martial in
December.

Lakin was sentenced to six months at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, for
refusing to go to Afghanistan.

In online videos posted on YouTube, Lakin aligned himself with the
so-called “birther” movement that questions whether Obama is a
natural-born citizen, as the Constitution requires for presidents.

Lakin’s sentence also includes dismissal from the armed services.
