First Female Presidential Helicopter Pilot Fired Over Assault Arrest

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.

Simple assault doesn’t mean anything except namecalling.

If the vic FEELS that the other could possibly harm them it is simple assault.

I wonder if Obama had anything to do with her promotion?

She beats up her, ‘wife’ on personal time, it’s bad enough that she GETS BUSTED FOR IT, conceals that information from her Chain of Command, and yet We The People will STILL be paying her retirement (as a Lt. Col!) until the day she sheds her mortal coil...

27 years time in service, force retired from a dead career, she soon will be relaxing in a breezy lanai in Hawaii with a houseboy she can dominate and emasculate.

First female assigned, first female fired, probably first lesbian. There is the hat trick.

Boys are trained from childhood to "never hit a girl"

My sons and grandsons hit girls every week. And they pay to have it done to them.

Of course some of them get good at hitting back.

Male homosexuals also have a high level of domestic violence as well.

The military must have more queers per square inch than the general population.
