First Female Presidential Helicopter Pilot Fired Over Assault Arrest
Jonah Bennett National Security/Politics Reporter 5:15 PM 06/07/2017
The first female presidential helicopter pilot has been fired from command of her current squadron after she declined to report to her chain of command that she was arrested for assault.
Marine Corps Lt. Col. Jennifer Grieves, who served as the first female officer to command Marine One in 2009, was removed from command of Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 464, “due to a loss of trust and confidence in her ability to continue to lead,” Task & Purpose reported Wednesday.
She assumed command of HMH-464 in May 2015, according to her Marine Corps biography.
Grieves was arrested in December and charged with simple assault over a domestic dispute, while she was at her home in Sneads Ferry, N.C. Although she was released on $500 bail, the charge is still pending. Grieves never reported the incident, and now she has lost command and will be reassigned elsewhere within II Marine Expeditionary Force.
Grieves gained a certain amount of fame when ABC News proclaimed her “person of the week” after she finished serving in a year-long post as pilot of Marine One during the Obama administration. She served with an all-female crew in her last flight on the job.

rules are rules.
45? They usually look pretty hot at that age when they keep their weight down. Guilty.
Too bad, her ribbons indicate good service.
However, “she declined to report to her chain of command that she was arrested for assault.” that you cannot do.
yeah, that’s a secret of the military. They treat you like an animal and restrict what you eat and tell you what to do and train and train- but you know what? You end up looking fabulous
Domestic dispute? Did she assault her husband...or her wife?
Wonder who she assaulted and why?
Her career is over....
Lesbo.
“From other sources. It seemed she came home. Socked her wife. Got arrested and then failed to inform leadership.”

It was her wife. Saw it in the local paper.
Kool! The first female Presidential helicopter pilot to be hired AND the first female Presidential helicopter pilot to be fired! Not quite a hat trick, but history will never be able to take those two “first female” achievements away from her!
Has to be wife..........that chics face has BUTCH written all over it!
Looks like a Nurse Ratched type to me.
“Take me to the Brig. I want to see the “real Marines”.
Chesty Puller
One of the great things about homosexual marriage is that they can now participate in the time-honored tradition of domestic family violence. Something that had been denied them because of whom they choose to love.
Pure out bigotry. But now...
“It was her wife. Saw it in the local paper.”
She sounds very unstable and needs to be discharged. I wonder if Obama had anything to do with her promotion?
Usually in any sort of domestic dispute, it's the man who gets taken away. Unless there IS no man involved in this domestic dispute. She looks guilty because there doesn't seem to be any trace of femininity there.
She should just claim that she identifies as a muslim male and that wife beating is one of her required religious duties.
