Is this the same guy who was put on leave a few weeks ago over some gambling and fraudulent chips scandal?

It’s a race. Will the sense of self-preservation kick in before the military is destroyed?

He would be the Vice at Stratcom, not to be prosecuted by Iowa but involved in possible fabrication of casino chips and passing them at his favorite casinos.

A senior officer at the military command in charge of all U.S. nuclear war-fighting forces is a suspect in a gambling investigation and has been suspended from his duties, two senior U.S. officials confirmed to Fox News.

Navy Vice Adm. Tim Giardina has not been arrested or charged, Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation special agent David Dales said Saturday. The state investigation is ongoing.

No, this guy was long ago promoted beyond his abilities and common sense. There are very few flag officers these days who are not what my grandfather would referred to as political strumpets.

...and Obama continues to shrink our nuclear arsenal...as far as Obama is concerned...since so many other countries are now developing them - why does the US need so many...who’da thunk!

Hasn’t there been an unusually high number of high ranking officers across the military who have been relieved of their commands under Obama?

Probably wouldn’t sign a document swearing he would nuke his own people if ordered to do so.

As usual, we need to get it from a foreign news source: US nuclear forces admiral Tim Giardina sacked over allegations he used counterfeit chips in a casino

You think he's been booted aside to be replaced by a "reliable" Obama-minion?

I wonder if this is some possible fallout from the Edward Snowden affair?

Another coincidence! Tell me something is not on the horizon that the leaders of our Military need to be in lock step with Dear leader. Who is being put in these replacement position need to be looked at? Has anyone put a list together to see who is in place of all these leaders? Yeah, not going to end well. And tell me, where is the out cry from the party of Lincoln that exposes these deeds? Hmmm, interesting indeed.
