The Army Times also noted that Lewis is the first African American to serve since Colin Powell held that position in the 1980s.

Lewis deployed to Afghanistan as deputy commanding general of the 101st Airborne Division, returning in February 2014.

That was my first thought too, or maybe he refused to buy a prayer rug.

LtG’s

count on them to be assured our country will not go to Hell in a hand basket , via the idiots that think they hold power . They don’t .....all power comes out of the barrel of a gun(s) The Mil commands the guns , ultimately .
If any patently illegal orders go out , like “ go after the American patriots , they are the enemy “ , something great will happen with our stalwarts in uniform . I trust them to do the right thing , if the wrong things seem about to happen .

Ashton Carter is before anything, a Company Man. He does as he is told. This is the impression I got watching Carter being sworn into office, his face serious and calm, while three feet away, the Vice President, Old Joe, was running his hands over Ashton’s wife, softly kissing the nape of her neck. Stephanie Carter, Ashton’s wife, just kept a frozen, vacant stare throughout the entire creepy and inappropriate ordeal.

Or the Transgendered agenda. Or the general preoccupation of the military with ‘Gender Issues’ period. Making nice and never judging is not the main purpose of a fighting group.
