WAIT!!!
Is this the SAME Col Steele who was CAPT Steele in Black Hawk Down??
IF SO, that means he is the SAME LtCol Steele who issued orders to KILL EVERY MILITARY AGED MALE, had 5 of his men charged with MURDER for it, and he himself just got an article 15 for it!!
SSgt Girouard just went to jail for covering for one of his men for that incident while not shooting anyone himself!!!
IF this is THAT Col Steele , then he is a piece of scum, not worthy of respect!

Not the same guy.
Col Mike Steele is now back at Ft. Campbell.
This guy is not a full bird.

Btw, he got a reprimand, not a article 15. End of career, anyway.

I Googled Cpt. Steele.
The guy at Mogadishu was named Cpt. Michael Steele. Col. Michael Steele is also the guy that gave the orders to kill all military age males to his troops.

KILL EVERY MILITARY AGED MALE
Given the clannish nature of Muslims and the inability to distinguish the enemy, that's unfortunately what you have to do in some towns. In rare cases, Steele's order could be a perfectly justifiable and responsible reaction given the circumstances.

Doubtful that any officer with that kind of history would ever get another command, let alone a sensitive one like this LTC holds (held).

THe Somalia/Black Hawk Down character was MIKE Steele, this is WILLIAM Steele. Are you sure that was a real name, anyway, in Black Hawk Down?
To: RaceBannon
I believe that was Mike Steele, so it’s not the same.

If he got an article 15 as a Captain it is highly unlikely he was promoted to Major, let alone LTC. At least when I was in the Army, an article 15 was a career ending event for an officer.
