Army Maj. Gen. found dead in home two days before assuming new command

R.I.P.

"just arrived Redstone Arsena to take over as the commander of the Army Space and Missile Defense Command"

RIP.

What did Hillary have against him, I wonder?/

Suspicious circumstances?

The article failed to say WHY he died or how.

Redstone Arsenal is in our neck of the woods.

Someone had better do an inventory of weapons. Lord knows what Hillary and Barry have sold to whom?

Ft Sill & Redstone Arsenal ping

It says they are investigating but no obvious signs of foul play. Maybe they will say he was old,smoked and had health problems.

Right before he gets his 3rd state he dies suddenly ???

Right our of a Clinton/Obama playbook...

What did he do “wrong” ???

Under Obama there have been a lot suspicious happenings in the Missile Defense Command.

What does your local news say he died from?

That was an excellent tribute from Major General Lee Baxter (former Fort Sill commander). I remember when he was the XO of 3d Armd DivArty in 1984-86 at Hanau, Germany. I was the S-2

The article failed to say WHY he died or how.

If Hillary had anything to do with it, he probably had two gunshots to the back of the head. It will ruled a suicide.

Was it another suicide?

There’s been a lot of that going around.

The rats are cleaning house of any or all ‘problems’.

Yes there have been A Lot off US military officers “purged” under Obola:
