Lt Col Coombes said: “This case concerns the ill treatment of two marines by the accused, who were troop corporals in 43 Commando at the time. The soldier who was last to ‘finish’ masturabting to the explicit same-sex films would be forced to perform an additional punishment, it has been claimed.
One punishment involved the men being forced to perform a sex act while watching gay pornography on a laptop.
Portsmouth Military Court was told one soldier would play The Banker, handing out punishments to fellow troops as part of the “kangaroo court”. The acts were part of a perverse version of Deal Or No Deal in which soldiers picked a box at random and were then forced to do the act detailed in the box.
