Army specialist Marc Hall has been jailed after writing a rap song against the Army’s controversial stop loss policy and mailing it to the Pentagon. The stop loss policy makes it legal for the army to extend a soldier’s deployment or service beyond their designated time in the military. Hall isn’t the first soldier to raise questions about the policy, but now his could have further implications for freedom of speech in the army.
