Seems like an odd thing to fall on your sword over. I don’t get the hero thing, he broke the chain of command. Lose one’s commission and benefits for life for this ‘cause’? Not worth it.
If you had principles you would understand.
Not Worth It - That is exactly what they are counting on to make the sheeple go along with the Obamanator’s deficiencies. He's a hero in my book
Hat's off to the LTC

The chain of command was already broken and remains broken because we have an illegitimate CinC.
Funny thing how our system frowns on military uprisings, aka mutinies.
Judge Lind ruled that whether a valid President approved the use of force is IRRELEVANT to whether the deployment orders are lawful.
If that is true, then any brigade commander in the country could lawfully order troops to invade Iran today, and if anybody disobeyed those orders they would get the sentence Lakin got. They would not even be able to BRING UP the small, “irrelevant” fact that the only person lawfully able to authorize combat in Iran had never done so.
That’s what we’re talking about. That is how far the military leadership was willing to go in order to protect King Obama. They are willing to decree a lawless command structure to cover for Obama.
Obama’s coup has extended to the military, with the military leadership happily taking off her clothes and bending over for the perpetrator.
LTC Lakin believed otherwise, and many of us applaud and honor him for the stand he has taken. One day the truth will be revealed, probably long after the Imposter-in-Chief has done his very best to weaken and diminish the U.S.A. among the nations of the world.
It’s understandable that those who don’t understand the concept of standing on principle in support of honor and duty to country, can not understand how someone is willing to “lose one’s commission and benefits”.
In order to understand this, you would have to have at least a vague idea of what courage is. For me, I'm just glad you and your ilk weren't around in 1776 or you would be talking about your king instead of your president.
For emphasis: The President was NOT born in the United States and is ineligible to be Commander in Chief.
By claiming the chain of command was already broken.
Not worth it? I imagine he will become an instant celebrity on the lecture circuit and command some big fees.
Ah... Another who has few principles, and fewer scruples, I am certain. And, for you, I am also sure that materialism always trumps doing the right thing.
****Lose one’s commission and benefits for life for this ‘cause’? Not worth it.****
He determined this to be a cause greater than himself. That is called ‘courage’.
Arlington is not the dead letter file of the Post Office!!!
A decision of ‘worth’ is individual choice. Take for example’give me liberty or give me death’. I don’t know what Lakin’s personal stand on this is but I will bet he has now established himslf in USA history as a man who tried to verify what our Constitution means.
