I hope CW3 Budge gets some help and consideration here.
If there is no other side to this story, he should be getting better treatment. Having served in the Navy for a few years in my life (just a Petty Officer) I do recall how progess or change on any controversial issue can become bogged down under the weight of bureaucracy and over inflated egos. Somebody is slow walking this thing for their own reasons, and others are showing their loyalty to the chief Slow Walker. Who? I would not know.

A military without transparent ethics is one to fear and despise.
Certainly not one to enlist in yet.

What’s Hegseth’s and Trump’s major problem here to permit this festering boil of the covid lie?

Either the military is to be honorable and professional, or it is the latest swamp leader’s tool.

Something missing from story. Seems like Hegseth could pick up a phone and fix this guy’s situation in 5 minutes. Gotta be a reason he hasn’t.

I flew Blackhawk’s for 24 years. Retired in 2017. I probably would have sucked it up and got the shot.

As a former army instructor pilot both fixed wing and rotary I don’t see how the FEB could be used against him. It is a “flight Evaluation Board” based on flying skills. I once tried FEB a guy but there was not a long paper trail so unsuccessful. Became a wonderful friend 10 years later but admittedly never was a true pilot

Hey no big deal. The army has plenty of politically connected lesbians they can stick in a Blackhawk to take selfies and crash in the airliners.

OH yeah, no justification AT ALL for my persistent & ongoing critique of this administration’s FAILURE to end the plandemic.

Can’t offend the stupid on either side, now can we??? /s
