Soldier Accused as Coward Says He Is Guilty Only of Panic Attack



By JEFFREY GETTLEMAN
Published: November 6, 2003

Not since the Vietnam War has the Army punished a soldier for being too
scared to do his duty.

But on Friday, Sgt. Georg Andreas Pogany will appear in front of
military court here to face charges he was a coward.

The Army says he is guilty of ''cowardly conduct as a result of fear''
and not performing his duties as an interrogator for a squad of Green
Berets in Samarra, Iraq.
