CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. — A former Marine Corps drill instructor was “drunk on power” and targeted three Muslim recruits for abuse, prosecutors said at the opening of his court-martial on charges including cruelty and maltreatment. Felix told another Muslim recruit: “Hey, ISIS, get in the dryer,” prosecutors said. Corey Weilert told the eight-person jury hearing the case at the sprawling North Carolina Marine Corps base. He will face court-martial at Marine Corps Base Quantico in Virginia, but no trial date has been set. Prosecutors say Felix told recruits not to talk about the incident outside of the unit, The Island Packet of Hilton Head, South Carolina, reported .
