The cadet who caused an uproar in the military community last year after he held a cap with the words “Communism Will Win” written inside has been officially kicked out of the U.S. Army.

Spenser Rapone was booted by top officials at Fort Drum’s 10th Mountain Division with an other-than-honorable discharge after they accepted his resignation on June 18. In an earlier statement, they said they had given him a warning for “conduct unbecoming of an officer.”
