The Air Force’s two star general in charge of the units responsible for its 450 nuclear missiles has been fired “due to a loss of trust and confidence in his leadership and judgment.”
Maj. Gen. Michael Carey has been removed from command of the 20th Air Force, according to an Air Force statement. That command is responsible for the three wings that maintain control of the 450 intercontinental ballistic missiles scattered in missile silos across the northern plains.
Lt. Gen. James Kowalski, the commander of Air Force Global Strike Command, made the decision because of what the statement said was a ”loss of trust and confidence. etc...
Kodlick would not specifically reveal where the personal misbehavior may have occurred or may have consisted of though he said it did not involve criminal behavior.
Kowalski’s command is responsible for two-thirds of the nation’s nuclear triad, including Air Force nuclear missiles and long-range bombers.
Kodlick explained that personal behavior is important in nuclear commands because “it’s a position of great trust and responsibility.” He added that “the nuclear deterrence mission is one of great focus and discipline. Personal behavior is vital to that, especially from a commander.
Earlier this week President Obama relieved of command the number two officer at U.S. Strategic Command, which among other things oversees the military’s nuclear forces.

What's going on???
Breathing while hetero...and understanding the Constitution, no doubt.
Do you remember someone talking about “stars falling”?
This is almost an everyday occurrence, now.
Another Executive Saturday Night Massacre, except the media won’t cover this one.....
Wonder if any were overheard expressing dismay at the CIC?

Maybe they failed the “litmus” test.
More like will you fire on American citizens...
What’s going on???
The NSA and John Brennan purging the leadership of the Armed Forces and replacing them with Obamanistas...
They need to get a transvestite in there to command.
If Obama’s name was Joe Stalin You could call these incidents Stalin’s purges of the military leadership.Lets hope this doesn’t continue because old Joe Stalin left Russia damned near defenseless against the Nazis when they Stated Operation Barberossa.
Did he tell someone he believed in Jesus?
Maybe he refused to say he would shoot US citizens.
Or maybe he called someone queer.
Maybe even someone who is openly queer.
Whether they did or not, their replacements will have to take the test to get the promotion.
And yet Holder and Sebelius still have their jobs.
Reichtag fire?
Obama wants his own personal junta in control.
This is very straightforward stuff. Ask Morsi, or Erdogan, or Khamenei.
A pre-world war purge of all competent top brass.
It’s a tradition, Stalin did it before WWII.
Hostile forces to the US are going to be put in charge of those weapons. That would be my guess. They have groomed replacements for anyone with a real allegiance to the united states.
