Colonel West...you've got my back anytime

LTC West responds to FR article
I have not changed my opinion in the least, for all of the same reasons we discussed then. Clearly, you have not changed yours either.
The case is in the hands of the military justice system now and we will both have to live with their verdict, whatever it is. After speaking with many more combat veterans of both the Pacific war in WW II (including my own father) and the Korean war...who are appalled by the military prosecuting this man and believe they have lost their collective minds, and, again, for the reasons I enumerated in those threads...I just hope the charges are dropped and he is allowed to retire with his full military benefits.
We shall see. God bless all of those to serve and particularly who put themselves and their all on the line to accomplish their mission in defending liberty and preserving America (and American lives).
I just love it when self-styled military geniuses and moral paragons run off endlessly at the mouth about war being just a hair removed from a freepin' card game.
Rules, ya know.
