Conflict Over Tradition Ends A West Point Cadet's Dream
1988
Overview
Captain [Joseph E. Martz] is 31 years old, a 1979 West Point graduate who served as a troop commander in West Germany. He is described by Mr. Edwards and some of the other cadets in his company as ''a stickler'' and ''a hard-liner,'' who sometimes, some say, ''bears grudges'' and ''can leave out the human factor.'' ''Martz had a personal vendetta against [Lau],'' a cadet said. ''Lau made the mistake of accusing him publicly of having a personal vendetta.'' Mr. Lau confirmed his suspension and said he had had ''lots of problems with Captain Martz.'' But he said to discuss them would be ''tough in my position.'' Mr. Lau is seeking to appeal his suspension. 'He's a Lineholder' ''I know Captain Martz,'' said Colonel [William L. Wilson]. ''He's intense, he's dedicated, he cares - he's a lineholder, he's not easy to work around and slip by on the edges. And when Martz says, 'No, you can't,' by God, it's going to cause some problems.''
