PENSACOLA — Affidavits from the unnamed military personnel — including Air Force officers at Eglin Air Force Base and Hurlburt Field — involved in a court challenge to a Department of Defense mandate that military personnel get a COVID-19 vaccination provide some insight into their decisions to participate in the case.
Many of the affidavits included in the case brought by the 16 unnamed military personnel stationed across the United States are simply legal boilerplate, expressing little beyond general legal concerns about the mandate.
However, a number of the affidavits, including those filed by local military personnel, provide some additional insight into who they are and their reasoning with regard to the vaccine.
As one example, a female Air Force officer stationed at Hurlburt Field who lives in Pensacola said she was ordered on Sept. 10 to get the vaccine by Sept. 30, but was concerned because in her view, all the vaccines available at the time were authorized only for emergency use.

There are a variety of protests listed in the lawsuit, including by one who has already been vaccinated. At least one is a pilot.
Sydney Powell is mentioned in the article but may not be directly involved.
Good move. They are correct. Hope they prevail. Our military readiness is affected both short term and long term.

Biden sued by Air Force officers who compare vaccine rule to death sentence
Where did I read that pilots are being grounded after taking the jab? Supposedly it is causing blood clots at high altitudes. Think it was in Canada.
Haven’t seen any articles where vaxed people are being turned away from donating blood lately.
All people need is to have a supply of HCQ or Ivermectin available to treat Covid within 48 hours of symptoms.
All people need is to have a supply of HCQ or Ivermectin available to treat Covid within 48 hours of symptoms. They have been around for 50 years without side effects.
And case and death rates never went does too much below what they last summer.* Meanwhile since almost all Covid-assigned death are among those with at least 2 comorbidities, mainly obesity and related conditions, then the real problem is that poor fitness of America and our self-indulgent lifestyle. case. And which the “shutdown” made worse.
I wonder if this could also affect scuba divers. The deeper you dive the amount of pressure increases dramatically.
FTA: The lawsuit also asserts that vaccine mandates are unfair due to "systematically excluding those entering or remaining in the country illegally ... ," and contends that as a result, "service members sworn to uphold the Constitution and defend our borders, are treated less favorably than unauthorized aliens who flout our laws and refuse vaccination."
This does not apply because civilians, including illegal aliens, are not subject to the UCMJ.
FTA: During a counseling session involving his squadron commander, he said, "They let me know that even if my religious exemption request got granted, their intent was to no longer send me on deployments and disqualify me from being upgraded to my next crew position."
Apparently, the USAF is granting some religious exemptions. However, in the case of some pilots, this could end their Air Force career.
Based on the 2004 anthrax lawsuit, I believe the plaintiffs will win this lawsuit but eventually lose the battle.
Good to see lawsuits coming!
And that the subject of EUA was brought up.
Right now, only Comirnaty is FDA authorized; PfizerBiontech, J&J and Moderna are still under EUA.
I got Ivermectin, awaiting shipment of HCQ, Doxycycline and Azithromycin.
I wonder if a new thread could be started asking for folks to link articles referencing lawsuits, military, federal or civilian based. What do you all think?
That would be great, but this article barely even received any replies. You’d think just the mention of Sydney Powell would extract a response from some, one way or another, but I guess most didn’t even read past the title.
The few that did reply seemed to be mostly defeatist, so maybe that’s the reason. I talked to a labor law specialist lawyer last week in detail about the prospects of fighting this, and he didn’t seem hopeful of winning, especially not in the end. You can read some of my comments on that thread here:

Yes, I know lots of folks are sounding defeated. The folks where I work are like, "well, I gotta eat, me and the family, so I'll just roll up my sleeve and go with it."
Problem is, many of those same folks are now falling ill to the jabs. If they had rose up and fought this from the beginning instead of a adopting "well, I got to follow orders" mentality, this might have been defeated by now. Many of them are my friends, but at the same time all I say is, "what a bunch of cowards."
Just goes to show the times we live in where society resembles Germany 1933-5. God help those who still stand up for truth, honor, dignity and Godliness.
