Birds of a feather

“On November 13, 2012, Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said that Allen’s nomination for SACEUR would be “delayed.” News agencies reported that Allen’s communications with Jill Kelley, a Tampa woman who was friends with Allen’s predecessor as top commander in Afghanistan, David Petraeus, were under investigation. Petraeus had resigned as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency four days earlier.[39]

In November 2012, Allen became embroiled in an inappropriate communication investigation concerning his correspondences with Jill Kelley.[40] According to the FBI, Allen had received anonymous e-mail messages, sent by someone identified as “kelleypatrol” (later found to be Paula Broadwell) advising him to stay away from Jill Kelley. Allen forwarded it to Kelley and they discussed a concern that someone was cyberstalking them.[4]

In response to the investigation, Secretary Panetta moved to speed the nomination of General Joseph Dunford to command of forces in Afghanistan.[41]

If they did a side-by-side of his emails with deaths in combat in Helmand Province I’ll bet you can find more than one happening at the same time.
