Stephen Dash v. The Commanding General, Fort Jackson, South Carolina, and the Secretary of the Army

PER CURIAM: Soldiers stationed at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, appealed from a judgment of the district court that upheld the constitutionality of a regulation prohibiting the distribution of printed material without the post commander’s approval and sustained the commander’s denial of their request for a public meeting on the post. With his usual thoroughness, Judge Russell carefully balanced the competing interests founded on the First Amendment and the constitutional grants of power for the government and regulation of the military. We affirm on his opinion, Dash v. Commanding General, 307 F.Supp. 849 (D.S.C.1969).
