While I personally applaud LTC West, he knowingly violated the UCMJ. You are taught over and over that there are things you may not do, his actions were wrong.Spoken like a true Zero Tolerance disciple. Shows no regard for context. LTC West is a hero.

Military discipline is the mother of zero tolerance.
Difference is we make the rules extremely clear from day one, as opposed to the zero tolerance to which you refer where they make them up as they go.

You may wish to note, though I'm sure you will not, that I have said that I do not disagree with what he did. I do however understand that there is a punishment for breaking the UCMJ. Had some Nazi done this to us you would be screaming to hang him.
I have done many things in my life where I was prepared to take the consequences of my unlawful actions.
As for your "Spoken like a true Zero Tolerance disciple" you don't know a damn thing about me.
