GOOD NEWS PING

[RedRover]

Everyone's so tough on lawyers and JAGS (including me) that I have to give a guy like Jack Zimmermann his due. (His name is spelled with two n's, BTW, it's wrong in the article).

Mr. Zimmermann served 14 years on active duty in the Marine Corps, including duty as the commanding officer of two artillery batteries in combat, where he earned two Bronze Star medals for heroism and the Purple Heart for wounds in action.

He served for 16 years as an officer in the Marine Corps Reserve, including duty as the commanding officer of the infantry battalion headquartered in Houston.

He retired in 1994 as a colonel, and was presented the Meritorious Service Medal for his final assignment as a felony court-martial judge.

He is representing Lance Cpl. Jack B. Tatum of Oklahoma in this case. If any Oklahoma Freepers want to pitch in and help a native son, please see my homepage.

General Mattis of course did the right thing. About time someone has put their foot down on damn leakers.

That is good news. I'll have to check with my son when he gets back from the field on what the buzz is on base.
