Army sergeant convicted of child crimes during general court-martial

The case worked its way through the Military District of Washington during 2025, beginning with a May arraignment and ending with the November trial at the Fort Belvoir courtroom.

Like many soldiers, Globlek came from a military household. His father is believed to be a retired master sergeant. Globlek enlisted in 2013 and served as a 68T Animal Care Specialist at multiple duty stations, including Fort Lewis and Fort Wainwright under Public Health Command – Pacific. Public records also show a period of residence in El Paso, suggesting he likely spent time in the Fort Bliss or Fort Hood orbit—both hubs for MWD and veterinary support operations.

On paper, his career checked the right boxes for a mid-tier NCO in a specialized MOS. He wasn’t just another 68T on the roster. The Army publicly promoted him as one of the standouts in the MWD support community, regularly featuring him in official posts that praised his technical skill and professionalism.

He appeared in a bite-muzzle training video for MWD Jane X126, worked with Human Health Care Providers on canine trauma response, and supported Operation Midnight Sun by teaching handlers how to manage abdominal and limb injuries in rugged deployed environments.

At the time, he was presented as the kind of dependable vet tech who kept the dogs safe, the mission moving, and the handlers squared away.

Scrolling back far enough, the contrast almost knocks the wind out of you. In 2014, his mother proudly shared an article about elite military working dogs—specifically praising how those teams helped rescue children—and said it was exactly the kind of mission her son dreamed of supporting one day. Ten years later, that hopeful post sits in painful opposition to the reality now unfolding: her son removed from the Army and convicted of offenses involving the exploitation of children.

Under a plea agreement, the Army handed down 180 days of confinement and a bad-conduct discharge—an abrupt end to more than a decade in uniform.

With the sentence now final, the Army has formally severed ties with a soldier who once appeared to be a dependable member of the small, tight-knit Military Working Dog (MWD) support community—a community that relies heavily on trust, professionalism, and the character of its technicians.
