"Les Aspin was the very last gentleman in Congress and DOD.
Was that intended to be sarcastic?

In no way; in fact let me expand on the thought:

Les Aspin was the very last decent and honest gentleman in Congress and DOD

Ask MSG Gordon and SFC Shughart how decent he was. Oh, that's right.....they won't be able to give you their opinion since they're dead. Your "buddy" Les played a role in that little fiasco.
