It is a question because I infer from some comments today and in the past that some people think party matters more than facts. As well, earlier today in a thread I was pushing back at the paid hit piece by a couple people trying to swift boat him using a paid hit piece. Anyway, while I respect his 24-year career, accept his retirement and honorable service, I found in reading further and from several sources, that he has claimed a rank that was not his to claim upon retirement. I bring up Jackson because I did criticized him in the past to the anger of a few Freepres for doing the same. I think both committed stolen valor and both deserve equal disdain.
Are you sure that Jackson’s retirement at a lower rank wasn’t a RESULT OF ‘LAWFARE’ directed at him? Lots of that going around.
I find that I can not disagree with you about anything you posted. Thank you for thinking for yourself.
