well miss marie, that is not what I read. they both could be true, but you know as well as I if you are having a change of command, there is a ceremony, you get an award, there is a party. NONE OF THIS HAPPENED. HE WAS RELIEVED IN ADVANCE OF HIS DATE DUE TO CHALLENGING OUR SICKO cinc.

Here. Let me try to break this down for you.

General Ham took over for the disgraced General Ward.

It was a temporary position for Ham and he was only meant to hold the job until a permanent replacement could be found.

The replacement was announced ten days ago.

There has been no change of command ceremony because General Ham is still the AFRICOM Commander.... right now. He’s there. Doing the job.

He hasn’t been arrested, fired or relieved. He’s fine.

This is nothing more than a rumor and it’s total BS.
