He should have been court martialed.

So he gets a pension? Yep. Big one.

From what I can tell he retires with ~ half base pay which is about $55K per year and VA benefits. Not bad for a 45 year old. He won't be able to hang around DC unless he gets a payoff for the impeachment hoax...

...even if he had opted to attend the National War College.”

I understood that his follow-on assignment after being booted from the NSC was supposed to be a one year assignment to the war college. I think there's a service obligation attached to the schooling (so that the government gets its money back on the investment). By that point, even if Trump is reelected, Vindman's fifteen minutes of fame would long be up and he would merely be a privileged military officer forced to live merely off a officer's salary and benefits and denied TV appearances, book advance checks and cocktail party invitations. If he retires now, he can get some plum appearances on MSNBC and CNN and a book deal (which will get more attention because it will be held up for classification review if Trump wins) before all of those bennies expire.

The name error is from the original article. His name is Alexander, not Andrew.

He’s not down until he is serving hard time for the crimes against the country he committed.

Anyone ever notice the press hates war heroes like Michael Flynn, but loves “heroes” who rank shame members of congress, like Vindman?

As a Vet, the thing that bothers me the most is how many of these d-bags get promoted to the level of their treachery, or Useful Tool by the Leftists, get away with murder, then STILL get to sit back and live a long time enjoying a great retirement plan funded by ‘We The People.’

I saw it with my own eyes while I was in the Army. It was simply amazing the number of transfers I processed moving incompetent RUBES from Pillar to Post through the years. ‘Screw Up and Move Up!’

*SPIT*
