As Boykin pointed out, a number of them have been relieved of duty for no given reason.
Morale is at an unprecedented low, Boykin added, part of which is due to sequestration.
Sequestration has seriously cut back operational readiness for the military to the point where Boykin said that often they have no ammunition and are unable to conduct training because of the planned cuts.
