This was the “Commander” who’s playing grab ass with the rank and file?

Once again we see more people in positions of authority today that have ZERO business being in these positions...

Yes, but she’s in her FORTYs, hardly a randy young girl. Maybe she could have had some self control,. tamped down the bad behavior and urges, and not harassed subordinates as is expected of an officer? Is that too much to ask?

How can she be fired from command and STILL be in the service and reassigned?

Being relieved for cause is usually followed by being assigned a desk at headquarters. You might sit there for a year or more if you are appealing your separation, but that's where you retire. Her career is over.

My two BFFs and I have this discussion on a regular basis. We’re all Army. One was a Major, one a Warrant Office and I was a Sergeant First Class (E-7) with my paperwork ready to be a Warrant Officer.

In our combined 60+ years of service, none of us have every been harassed or have harassed anyone. And ALL of us were in leadership positions along the way! We had AMAZING men that were our leaders and really looked out for us, but never cut us any slack, either. It never would have occurred to us in a million years to ‘look for a boyfriend’ among our subordinates!

It is a whole ‘nother world out there, and I am glad to no longer be a part of it.

Just freakin’ BEHAVE YOURSELVES and DO YOUR JOB. How hard is that? Yeesh!

Surprised the Army would admit it. She must have pissed off someone higher up.

Thanks to DADT, and all the trannies outing themselves, the Pink Mafia, Ls who effectively run bases, through a combination of threats of sexual harassment charges and blackmail, are a major problem for military readiness. Gays officers, both male and female, like to prey on enlisted. Nowadays, they aren't punished for it.

I saw this woman on X in a photo. She was standing alongside a helo. The author of the tweet said she committed suicide... that was yesterday.

In today’s military I’m surprised she wasn’t hitting on women.

Maybe a married guy who didn’t want to be pressured into infidelity?

"Can a straight soldier’s career survive an accusation of pervo harassment from some rainbow pervert male officer?"

Short answer, no. Long answer, the Pink Mafia impacts readiness, but that's the last thing on the Army's mind. Family friend talked about it when she was home on leave. She is coming up on 16, so she is heavily torn about bailing.

The next war is going to be located just outside the gate, so...

“I saw this woman on X in a photo. She was standing alongside a helo. The author of the tweet said she committed suicide... that was yesterday.”

That suicide was a Staff Sergeant (SSG, E-6) single mom.

Similar looks, but definitely different.

“It is a whole ‘nother world out there”

Isn’t that the truth? I’m glad you and your friends were able to not get harassed.

My sister got her teaching degree in 1975 and tells me a lot of stories of harassment she suffered in her career.

I hope that’s not true. How very sad if true.
