Col. Lakin threw away his career, its accrued benefits, and (assuming this sentence holds) will spend six months in Leavenworth, and all his erstwhile supporters can say is “Lakin is done.” and let’s move on ?

If I were him, and that was the response to my life and career being shattered, I’d feel awfully damned used tonight.

No one forced Lakin to pled guilty. He sealed his own fate.

From wht little I have read about the proceedings, he finally came to realization that he had been screwed. And even worse,he screwed himself.What his thought process was I cannot say.

I, myself ,am only a peon, but , I do know that if obama occupies the White House it is because some powerful individuals wish for him to.And since they put him in office, they will keep him in office. By any means necessary.

If I am not mistaken (and someone correct me if this has changed)....Laking would serve his 6 months at Ft Riley (KS) in a “Retraining Brigade”. Sentences under 9 months are usually done there. At the Ft Riley confinement facility...it is pretty much “basic training” during your time there.
