The Command Sergeant Major of the U.S. Army’s Drill Sergeant School (DSS) has been suspended from duty and the Army is working overtime to smother the story.
An investigative report by militarycorruption.com (MCC) has uncovered the story Army brass would love to keep secret. According to MCC which specializing in exposing stories about our military the mainstream media and official channels won’t talk about, the Command Sergeant Major of the Army’s Drill Sergeant’s School (DSS) Teresa King has been charged with a variety of violations of Army regulations.
Sergeant Major Teresa King is an African American who will by 50 years old this year. She is divorced, has no children and has been in the Army for 31 years. Upon taking command of the DSS on September 22, 2009 King became the first female ever to hold that position.
On paper Sergeant Major King sounds like an ideal soldier and well qualified to be in such an important slot in the Army’s training structure.
Nevertheless, once the “paper” is turned over questions about why she was selected abound.
Reports from MCC’s on the ground correspondents say King’s suspension from duty was prompted by her heavy drinking, sexual relationship with a lower ranking enlisted soldier and perhaps worst of all the fact that at least one of the college degree she listed on her resume is from a schools deemed to be diploma mill.
Almeda College where King lists as the school from which she was granted a Master’s degree in business management, has been closed by legal action in both Florida and Idaho because it was declared a fake institution.
Another embarrassing element of King’s persona – which she has built around a “sergeant no slack” façade is the fact that in spite of her tough talk she has...

Our enemies must be lovin it.
They will probably quietly give her a new job somewhere else in the administration, like the DOJ. Considering the current bunch over there, she sounds qualified.
I don't mind a black woman (is she a lesbian too for the trifecta? - they don't name her partner in the alleged sexual relationship with a lower ranking soldier) in a position of authority, but all such decisions should be based on merit only. "... not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character" should be the goal, not an old perspective that is rejected as racist.
Coach can't write.
This is an interesting story, though. We certainly won't see in in the MSM any time soon.
Yes, I’m pretty sure that neither the Russians, the Chinese, the North Koreans, nor the Taliban have affirmative-action promotions.
The destruction of America is pretty much complete.
If you disagree with that assessment, please provide at least a basic path out of this disaster.
Women can serve in such positions if our main adversaries are the Dutch (gotta love those boys with ponytails) or the Danes. Otherwise, they have no role at all in anything other than some support positions. That aside, this is just the usual corrupt AA promotion of a completely unqualified black woman.
I agree about the trifecta part.
THAT action alone disqualifies her from any promotions or assignments of merit. At least, it would if it was a MALE involved.
In my 20+ years of military service, I had to contend with quite a few “Afirmative-Action” promotees/appointees of all ranks, in all types of units.
Most managed to get the job done. A few did have problems that merely confirmed those biases some other soldiers had.
Some took full advantage of the promotion to push their own agendas and surround themselves with people who had their “outlook” to further their careers at the cost of many others who had better technical or leadership skills.
Quite a few thought as I did that as a professional soldier we ALWAYS figured that we would all bleed the same color when hit and tried to work through whatever problems presented themselves.
I think it was Gen George C Marshall who indicated that the Army had no time and was no place to be a social experiment. That, obviously, has changed. Now it appears to be a mind-set of the upper leadership who think that Affirmative Action promotions will keep the tax $ flowing and the MSM/Congress off their backs.
One thing to consider in all this: the we STILL have the finest military in the world which is filled with outstanding individuals who are willing to make the sacrifices required to keep this country free.
*off my soapbox*
O.K. - so she is black and female.
Da Guru wants to know if she is also lesbian and Muslim. Or at least Zoroastrian, Wiccan, or some such fringe ‘faith’.
If not, those who promoted her should be tattooed, ear notched, and assigned to latrine duty until the next Ice Age ends.
You vill embrace diversity, JA!
Promote the scheiss - oder scruben Sie der scheis, versteh!
Was Colon Bowell AA also?
Wow. Lots of slander and virtually no facts on this thread, all directed at a woman who has spent her entire adult life in the service of her country.
I’ll suspend judgment until we know some more facts in the case.
Nope. They run on nepotism, Party status, and bribes.
If she earned the stuff on her uniform blouse (air assault, airborne, Ranger tab) she’s got at least some “merit” behind her. Maybe not enough to qualify as the CSM of the Drill Sergeant School.
But remember, per Kipling, single men (and women) in barracks are not going to be plaster saints.
The eyes are the door to the soul, look at her! She’s one nasty looking b-tch. She almost makes the “Wookie” look good!
I see the air assault and jump master airborne tabs, but not the Ranger. If there is a Ranger Tab, the school has changed a lot since I got mine 40 years ago. The obstacle course, rope climbs, forced marches & runs, lack of sleep, and being quartered cheek to jowl with your fellow candidates would hamper most guys from attaining the gold and blue arch.
If this "woman" got a Ranger Tab, that's a man, baby!
There are no female Rangers.

Sorry. I was thinking the patch on left shoulder might have been a Ranger tab. Thank you correcting that.
