Army Brigadier General Martin P. Schweitzer received a "memoranda of concern" following a lurid set of emails between him and another general, according to documents obtained by The Washington Post.
Schweitzer was briefing Brigadier Gen. Jeffrey Sinclair on a recent meeting he had with tea party Rep. Renee Ellmers (R-N.C.) in 2011.
From WaPo:
First she is smoking hot, Schweitzer wrote. Second briefing went well . . . she was engaging . . . had done her homework. She wants us to know she stands with us and will work/push to get the Fort Bragg family resourced.

Apparently Army standards are lower than Marine Corps standards....
Aside form having learned of the Generals masturbatory braggadocio, so what?
I agree about the double standards you’re pointing out. However, when you are in a position of authority / leadership, you should be very discerning about what you put into an email.
There are some things that are best left private...particularly when the luster has stars on his shoulders and the lustee has oversight authority over said officer.
maybe too much time in the sandbox
I’ve had a lot of rum this evening but even with that she is barely lukewarm.
“I dont think too many guys advance to flag rank by being stupid.”
Offered in rebuttal: Gen. Petraeus. Thinking with the wrong head can strike any rank & usually with disastrous results.
Used to be if you didn’t want to step on a mine, you avoided minefields. In today’s military, you carry a minefield around in your shirt pocket.
“Think twice before hitting that send button”
The typical fella of my age certainly wouldn't throw her out of bed.But when I was 20 my attitude might have been different.
Compared to Bill Clinton’s women, the General is right.
I agree this is ridiculous. Warriors make crude jokes. so what? This incident says less about this general and more about the chain of command and illustrates the nonsense they focus on
I wouldn’t convict her, but probation perhaps. Her innocence is questionable. Maybe she gets off with community service.
Yup,
How did this even get out? He only sent it to a few guys.
Perhaps he recently met with Sheila Jackson Lee, Maxine Waters or Hilary Clinton!
It isn't a matter of political correctness. It is a matter of discipline.
"Tough break for Handj06."
She definitely falls into the 2 @ 10 10 @ 2 category.
When you’re a whippersnapper you have a different perception regards beauty.
I would hit it.
She just aint “smoking”....
Laz is on sick leave anyway....
Never mind Gen. Schweizer’s stupid email. This is small potatoes compared to the general he was conversing with (Sinclair). He’s facing 35 years in the brig for a multitude of offenses including sodomy, pornography and conduct unbecoming an officer. His court martial starts next month I believe.
Several years ago at a wedding, I met a young grandmother (she was 52, I was 57) who was pretty “smoking hot” for her age - a well-tailored cocktail dress showing off a shapely figure and stunning legs. She looked better than a number of the bride’s sorority sisters and I wasn’t even drinking (designated driver back to the hotel).
