Okay, Folks, here’s a few observations:
We start with 197 relieved officers.
The 157 USAF majors were the result of a RIF (Reduction-in-Force); it was a personnel action that most likely had nothing to do with an ideological purge.
CAPT Litchfield, USS Essex, was relieved for cause for endangering his ship and the lives of his crew, when Essex collided with another vessel at sea.
RADM Gaouette had nothing to do with Benghazi. Gaouette wasn’t even in theater when it happened, and the Stennis Battle Group was in the Pacific. The Gaouette relief is not connected.
GEN Ham also has questions regarding his relief from USAFRICOM. There’s been debunking there too; I just don’t have the proper links to prove or disprove yet.
That reduces the total number of legitimate questionable actions to 37. But of those 37, we have the following:
Most of the reliefs were Navy, specifically in command positions, especially ships at sea. The ships involved were home-ported either 6th Fleet, or 7th Fleet - based coincidentally in FEMA Regions 3 and 9. The Marines that were relieved also followed this pattern as well.
Now, the purge of commanders in 2012 and in 2013 show a shift in focus. The 2012 reliefs were all unit commanders, either at ship/brigade level. The 2013 reliefs raised up to installation or major command levels.
This shift of focus could be the result of a purge (”It’s payback time”, declared Night Stalker). Flag-rank officers, particularly among the missile command structure, being let go is significant of such a purge.
Very very disturbing.
This from the DeMoines Register that “counterfeit chips are very rare at the casino”. Not that I’m suspicious of zero destroying our military’s highest officers or anything like that.
“Counterfeit chip usage very rarely occurs in Iowa casinos, Ohorilko said. He said Sunday that he could not remember a similar case in his nine-year career at the Iowa Racing and Gaming Commission.
“It’s a very controlled industry,” Ohorilko said. “There are a lot of efforts made routinely to prevent any sort of illegal or unethical things from occurring.”
Dealers and supervisors are trained to prevent the usage of counterfeit chips, Ohorilko said. They learn how to identify chips by markings and weight.
Surveillance is also used to monitor gaming tables at casinos, Ohorilko said.”

Thanks sarge - forgot to ping you when I quoted you - sorry ‘bout that...
More and more ‘sacking’ of conservative general officers.To make room for Obama’s (and Valery Jerrett’s) PC officers to move up into upper command positions.
http://www.wnd.com/2013/11/general-blames-night-stalker-for-military-purge/
I may have come up with another theory on why a record number of higher-ranking are being removed from command.It may be an attempt to ‘flip’ the military from a bastion of Christian,conservative institution of the American society.And turn the military into another progressive-controlled institution.Like the Hollywood,public schools & universities are now.
Hollywood public schools & universities were once conservative institutions.Till the progressives infiltrated these institutions,in the 60’s.And then worming their way into positions of power.Once in power,the progressives consolidated their control by removing any chance of the next generation of conservative subordinates from getting up into the power structure.
IMO These newly-minted PC command officers would act in the same way as progressive Hollywood producers and collage deans have once done.That is to only allow ‘like-minded’ junior officers & NCOs promotions and leadership positions.
And then the progressive command officers will then attempt to run off all conservative junior officers from military service.Through giving them poor performance evaluations (Thus ending their chances for further promotions).And transferring the conservative junior officers to all the crap assignments.
We have much to be concerned about esp on the domestic side. The rise in police brutality & i’m not going to go into all that as most of us know it’s on the rise.
What I’m curious about this is: The dog shootings, the by the side of the unlawful searches, the anal probings (as of recent) the punchings, the beatings and the out right shootings of innocent citizens and the list goes on.
Is there a website to go to & see these stats? #1: Are these cops unionized because all are not. #2: Are they hires who are recently discharged vets who bring a war mentatlity to their job?
There is plenty of information about how the feds are just showering PD’s around the country with re-built,left0ver equipment,etc... plus showering these towns & cities with money to perfect “fusion centers”.
All the while everything is being dismantled on the national & international side there is much , too much, to be feared as everyone has seen in the past few years and it’s GETTING WORSE on the domestic side. These PD’s are turning into thug outfits.
