If they had their way, they’d send him the Leavenworth.

While he might not have been articulate in his video he spoke truth to power and is exactly the right person to call out MC leadership. Get the rank abbreviate correct also if you are going to post. The Marine Corps abbreviates Lieutenant Colonel as LtCol. I know because I served in the Corps for over 25 years. WTF have you done to protect our country, lead men in battle, and endure the circumstances of war? There are soooo many “key board warriors” who risk nothing but have an opinion on everything. This Marine was willing to risk his 17-year career to make a statement he morally believed in... and he is absolutely right. What have you ever risked in support of the truth?

A reprimand maybe but not fired

The problem you have, in a society drowning in lies, is that the only acceptable military performance report to avoid getting fired (passed over for advancement) is a perfect rating.

Your late to the party. The coup already happened last January.

I understand, but it’s a formality, he’s been fired and is out of the military pending paperwork getting processed.

All patriots should retire immediately from the military if they can. Send a message.

One of President Trump’s biggest mistakes was not deep-sixing all of the generals and admirals appointed by Obama.

Of course. He embarrassed them.

They probably agreed that he will resign and told him go home, we’ll mail you your DD214.

Going on social media like a 17 year old girl is not what we should expect from our Marine officers.

BS..Even Trump used it to go around having his every word filtered and twisted by the lying deceitful main stream media.

I read where they’re 100’s of First Responders all around the country in Blue Cities that are refusing to take the Vaccine when those cities are mandating them...setting up a situation where the first responders who stand pat could be fired....it will be interesting to watch if 100’s of cops, EMT’s, etc...all quit

He is a true American and will always be a Marine.

The USMC left him and has lost the true essence of Semper fidelis.

My beloved Army still has that POS REMF who spouted about total BS on Chicom Tik Tok.

Not surprised. Since the stolen election of 2020, military oaths to defend the Constitution mean nothing.

This sounds somewhat familiar. I've seen similar sentiments voiced by historical figures in America's past.

Do they not trust their government any more?

fightin kentuckian... my apologies on my post calling you out. Your comments regarding this issue are spot on. However, I do take exception to all the critics who stand in condemnation of LtCol Scheller. Scheller has lead Marines in combat operations and understood all too well the consequences of his speaking out against the Pentagon's perfumed princes and GO/FO political whores. I've read comments on this forum for years and it has become all too apparent that many on here are experts on everything and are all too willing to offer up their assinine opinions all too freely at not cost to themselves.

The rules change when you put on the uniform. No one should be surprised at what happened to Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller, least of all him.

When an active duty officer goes public with his criticism of upper command, there will be consequences. This does not mean the Colonel was wrong in his criticism of feckless commanders; we know he was right in his criticism.

Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller spoke truth to power in the military and knew the consequences.

God bless him!

Praying the Lord replace the feckless faux leaders in our government and military with competent America-First Americans.

As the situation in this country continues to deteriorates we are going to need more people like this person who are will to risk their careers to fight back...

100’s if not 1000’s first responders around the country are faced with taking the vaccine or being fired, so far 100’s are say NO, if they stick to their position, it will be interesting to see if cities like NYC, Chicago and others will go ahead and fire them and what the result will be...

I make it a point to talk anybody out of enlisting at this time.
