UnNder what circumstances was Allen West pushed out of the US Army? I’m unfamiliar with that.

I don't think he was, strictly speaking, pushed out, but he was subjected to an Article 32 hearing, paid a large fine, and accepted non-judicial punishment, but was allowed to retire as a Lt. Col. (taken from the Wikipedia article at the link below)

The article also contains his "I would go through Hell with a gasoline can" statement.

Thanks for causing me to go read the Wikipedia article on West. I have always like him. Now, I like him even more.
