The Army brass is giving the finger to Trump. This says they are grooming him for promotion.
They are gonna go the Navy route.
And ... anyone still doubt the military leaders would be happy to follow orders against gun owners?
The DMZ in South Korea would be a perfect assignment for him. I hear they have wonderful winters...
As a target, I hope.
When they have him participate in "Red Team" vs. "Blue Team" war game, he can play Red (enemy) and show us how he'd defeat America.....
I think I would let Vindman stay. And whoever assigned him that great slot would be sent to a remote corner of Alaska. It would be a great lesson for the other smug insubordinate officers who think they might wanna stick it to the President.
I am sure the foreign officers will be super impressed with that dude.........NOT
In need of fragging.
This is a joke, right?
This was in the works a year ago at least. They make up the class way in advance. Now should it be pulled? Yes!
Something tells me the Lt Col is not going to be on the list for O-6.
War College is one of those boxes you check on the way to full Colonel. Shame to waste it on a guy like Vindman, who had several bad write-up from supervisors. No matter. It appears the Pentagon still has many swamp creatures.
I sure wouldn’t want him in my AWC class. It will be interesting to see how he acts in the ‘mixes’ of 12-15 individuals. Whether he is a know-it-all or acts humble. Hell, the way this Nation is going they may welcome him with open arms.
Vindman looks exactly like the kind of officers we would’ve despised when I was in the military...the smug know-it-alls that graduated from some academy or Ivy League school.
A member of my family attended the War College and told me that there are many participants from foreign countries’ militaries.
Vindman=lying dog faced pony soldier.
I hope some patriot pantses that putrid SOB when he stands to introduce himself in his first classroom.
He apparently isn’t going to get a dishonorable discharge and jail time, so I guess that is the best we can hope for.
Don’t know where he did his O-5 command but sure that his firing from the NSC will not sit favorably with the O-6 board. Better for him to retire now, at the height of his infamy, then get passed over.
I am a graduate of the Army War College. A few words on how this works and how Vindman is slated to attend. Selection is done by an Army central slection board who review all of the eligble files and select the best of these to attend. Based on the timings surrounding Vindman and the boards, he was selected last year and must have been deferred, probably because of his assignment to the NSC. That board would have never seen any of Vindman’s efficiency reports from the NSC, including the bad report from Morrison. He probably had a pretty good file and his selection is not surprising.
Once you are on the list, you are going to go, unless you are relieved or commit an offense like DWI, sexual conduct, etc. Vindman was reassigned from the NSC, not an adverse action, at least not yet. I doubt that he will receive any disciplinary action that would cause him from being removed from the list. I’m guessing that he now has two bad reports in his file: Morrison’s report and the one he got on Friday. That means ENDEX as far as his career is concerned, but if nothing else happens, he will report to Carlisle this summer.
BTW, attendence at the War College does not guarantee promotion to COL, I know several who were not promoted. If you get a bad report in between the time you were selected to attend and the time that your COL promotion board convenes, you probably won’t get promoted. More super files are reviewed than the number of available promotions. If you have a ding, you are not going to make the cut.
I wouldn’t surprised if he retires before he reports. He is a hero of the revolution right now, he can get a good gig with the Leftie establishment.
POTUS needs to stop this NONSENSE!
NOW!
He should be posted to Diego Garcia until his discharge comes through in about 7 years!!
