"Because, as I said, they don't want to. They don't want to go to the trouble and expense and they don't want to give this guy the attention he wants. Especially since it appears he hasn't done anything except shoot his mouth off on the internet, if their story about him not being AWOL is true. "

The military not wanting to "go to the trouble and expense" really? Wow. Just how expensive and troublesome would it have been to change his discharge to even general...not to mention dishonorable?

And, as for "shooting his mouth off"...yeah, the military is very lenient to enlisted personnel who shoot their mouth off and publicly state they believe the CinC is a criminal and should be arrested. Just everyday occurrences in the military I'm sure. No biggie. Oh..and to go ahead and give him that well earned Honorable Discharge any way.

Sure.

“yeah, the military is very lenient to enlisted personnel who shoot their mouth off and publicly state they believe the CinC is a criminal and should be arrested”

That is pretty close to what some enlisted said about GWB in 2001. The squadron commander told them to keep their opinions to themselves while on duty. And that was it.

Except for a couple who wanted to refuse to deploy because GWB wasn’t a legitimate President. They were told to deploy or go to jail, and they deployed.

No one was punished formally. The folks who didn’t want to deploy were encourage to leave when their enlistment was up.
