  Two Wolf Pack Airmen received judicial punishment here after their individual courts martials came to a close last week. 

  Capt. David Still, 35th Fighter Squadron, and Staff Sgt. Aaron Wilson, 35th Aircraft Maintenance Unit, received their punishments from military judge Lt. Col. Eric Dillow.
Capt. Still plead guilty to violating a lawful general order by having sex with an enlisted female while pleading not guilty to raping one lieutenant and attempting to rape another. 

  The captain also plead not guilty to a charge of drunk-and-disorderly conduct. 

  Civilian defense attorney Frank Spinner defended Capt. Still and after nearly four full days of testimony, the captain was found not guilty of rape, attempted rape and drunk-and-disorderly conduct. 

  Having plead guilty to violating a lawful general order, the captain was reprimanded and fined $2000 a month for two months. 

  Sgt. Wilson was involved in a summer 2006 incident involving an F-16. In June 2006, Sgt. Wilson was involved in an incident in which a frog was deliberately tossed in front of a running F-16 engine so that the amphibian could be ingested. 

  The sergeant was sitting in the F-16 cockpit conducting the engine run when the incident occurred. Sgt. Wilson was found guilty of three specifications of dereliction of duty. The judge sentenced the NCO to four months confinement, a bad-conduct discharge and reduction to the grade of E-1. Based on the terms of a pre-trial agreement, the former NCO will only serve three of those four months. 

  Following a trial last month, Senior Airman Welland Wilkerson, who was also involved in the incident, was sentenced to 30 days confinement and reduction in grade to E-1. Col. Jeff "Wolf" Lofgren later commuted part of the his sentence, such that his current rank is now E-2.
