Having worked on a Division level staff as an officer, I'd have to say "no" none of them probably deserved it. When you're talking about such senior level officers these kinds of POGROMS are almost always political. The character defects that leads to a real issue like gambling or adultry or money problems or abuses of power usually show up in the mid level or lower level officer corps pretty early on. A buddy of mine who retired as an 05 (Lieutenant Colonel) of Special Forces called it "The Night of the Long Knives." You can bet these are the guys who would break the chain of command or disobey a direct order to shoot civilians. That's got to be the level we're speaking of here. It's follow the Man Who Would Be King or follow the Constitution because they're obviously not the same thing, now.

OK
You'll never know. This is the administration of Benghazi, Fast and Furious, IRS political targeting, burials at sea, exploding seal teams, arming Al Qaeda etc. You can believe nothing they say.
How does this compare with other Administrations?
Hi There ... Welcome ... Wearing your sidearms?

We have those types right here. Any excuse given is acceptable to them. Obama could claim they jaywalked and they would chime in along with the liberals, “Yeah! We don’t want no criminals in uniform!”
yep, to know the place.
