A British Army sergeant major punched a married soldier three times after finding one of his female gunners in his bed and taking 15 photos to document the evidence, a court heard. Warrant Officer 2 Martin Holder intervened after allegedly finding Lance Bombardier Sarah White under the covers of Colour Sergeant James Kelt's bunk following an alcohol-fuelled night out during a training exercise in Germany. The 50-year-old immediately started taking photos of the pair, which he claimed he would use as evidence to prove they had 'breached' the standards and values of the army.
