[Heading truncated] The U.S. Army is prepared to move Col. Vindman and his family onto a military base in the area to ensure their security if it is determined that they are in physical danger, according to U.S. officials.
Army security officials in recent weeks conducted a security assessment at Col. Vindman’s request, reviewing both his and his family’s physical security and their online security, according to U.S. officials.
Army security officials have also been monitoring Col. Vindman and his family around the clock to make sure there aren’t any imminent threats, officials said.

It is common practice to refer to Lieutenant Colonels as well as full Colonels as Colonel in the Army, USAF & USMC; just as Navy Lieutenant Commanders are referred to as Commander even when they don’t have the extra stripe. Also, sergeants are generally referred to as sergeant whether they are E-5 or E-7; E-8s are First Sergeant or Master Sergeant and E-9s are consistently called Sergeant Major. I was a Sergeant First Class, E-7, but was I was generally addressed as Sergeant Grey Friar. And folks could see my SFC rank on my collar/sleeve/shoulder, depending upon the uniform I was wearing.

Thank you.
We could post Vindman didn’t kill himself and not be wistful
Gitmo is safe! if he is behind bars nothing can happen to him.
Funny. How all of the FR “regulars” seem to be studiously avoiding this thread.
“He plays with the bigness of his littleness”
The only people in danger here are the poor souls unfortunate enough to be caught between this guy and the Dining Facility.....
Thank you!
Another FReeper posted this on another thread:
DURING TESTIMONY VINDMAN SAID: “Light wounds” and “Returned to Service that same day”!!!! My nephew served in Iraq and Afghanistan as a Marine SS. He suffered numerous combat injuries and has NO Purple Heart. His comment upon hearing this: “I came home in ONE piece. I spent years visiting friends in Walter Reed with life-altering injuries. They truly deserve the Purple Heart. Seeing a guy like Vindman receive a Purple Heart for an “injury” that he returned to duty from same day!? Some soldiers have NO honor.” _________________________________________________
Is he going to be taken to the base by the same SWAT team that arrested Roger Stone?
Real funny for sure.
They are trying to conflate his traitorous actions with LtCol North who really did receive death threats from the fascist left.
“Army security officials have also been monitoring Col. Vindman.”
The Army should arrest the punk. Monitoring him is what losers do. Time to fire Obama employees in the Army.
he might be in danger but not from conservatives-he is no longer a liberal useful idiot, so they may terminate him to try and blame the right...of course the right doesn’t think about offing people, that’s not enough punishment, he should be tried convicted disgraced and sent to an uncomfortable prison where he can think about epstein every night and day...
This is not funny to me. It’s disturbing because the deep state might go along with his “fears” and promise protection on an Army base in order to have him attacked or offed so they can blame Trump. It wouldn’t be all that hard to do and it’s plain they intend to “get” the President one way or another. Any opportunity they can find is okay with them.
Vindman is soaking up the attention......likely because he said he was disrespected on twitter....what a loser!
I wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up with a military tribunal actually. They might be just using this as an excuse to keep him from getting out of town.......
the problem was that most of the MSM showed a pic of him in uniform (while standing)
And paraphrased how honorable his testimony was ....
50% of the folks will get their news this way.
