My belief is that the “people down the ranks” in the cohort you describe, are the kind of people that write letters like this:
“ And do yourself a favor, don’t confuse the command staff/flag officers we all see on tv with the folks down the ranks. ”
Personally, I suspect you are the one who is confusing the officers you see on TV with the ones you DON’T see on TV (that are trying to do their jobs against the media and political pressure). Another example how the leftist media is dividing us.
Meanwhile the dyke army chick will get promoted and put on recruiting posters for her in-uniform TikTok posting of her plans to shoot Americans when Marshal Law is declared
Really Dr, that letter is the broad brush you’re going to paint the entire officer corps in the US military with?
I have a bit more faith in those that have joined. This Marine Lt Col being one of them. He may not represent most of them, but there are many like him.
And, actually a West Point officer is probably the last person you should pick to represent the officer corps.
There was a secret little society back in the day, The West Point Protective Association. Basically, West Point grads made up the smallest number of officers in the Army, but they made up the largest section of Generals in the Army. They made sure they promoted their own.
I’m not as skeptical as you. There are plenty of folks that go through ROTC, OCS and the Green to Gold program that aren’t any different than the soon to be, former Marine Lt Col. But, as I stated, they soon get frustrated and bail out when they think the time is right.
He’ll never make full colonel now, even though he’s right !
We need mean tweets. It keeps everyone on their toes. Plus, it identifies who the pussies are.
He knows he ended his career but he is right on point.
I doubt she gets anything, maybe a promotion.
I’ve seen that number but I was thinking that represents Americans just in or near Kabul.
MTG said on Bannon yesterday said the total number of Americans in Afghanistan is 50,000.
I hope she was wrong when she said this.
She repeated that number several times, however.
"dyke army chick"
One important thing I learned while in: If you don’t kiss ass, you won’t get very far... and I didn’t kiss ass.
Another warrior purged from the ranks of leadership. Even the Marine Corps can’t handle real war fighters these days.
That pretty much sums it all up. Nice and tidy.
That always amazed me. Anyone that wants people sucking up to them like that has some real issues.
This Marine was not promoted. He was relieved of duty.
Cowardly behavior Generals Austin and Milley. You lost the respect of most of the American people.
The Corps will probably offer him the choice of resigning his commission or facing a General Court Martial. OTOH, they may go for the court martial to send a message to all officers, active and retired.
Saw a headline that he’s already been relieved.
Under the current climate, I’m going with Court Martial, stripped of rank. They might give him the option of resigning his commission under less than honorable circumstances or being tossed out.
And the message they send may not be the one that is heard by the enlisted and NCO Joe’s.
