More than 1,000 military veterans have signed on to a letter condemning President Trump over his "sustained attacks" on Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the Army official who provided damaging testimony during the House's impeachment inquiry and was later recalled from the White House's National Security Council (NSC).
The letter, which was organized by the anti-Trump group National Security Action, condemned the dismissal of Vindman and his twin brother, Lt. Col. Yevgeny Vindman, saying it suggests that Trump is prioritizing "a personal vendetta over our national security."....
Signatories of the letter include former U.S. Army Europe Commander Lt. Gen. Mark Hertling, former Under Secretary of Defense Frank Kendall and former Connecticut Army Reserve Brig. Gen. Shepard Stone, The Military Times first reported.

All veterans are not created equal. Some veterans are worthless punks. Some of us are awesome and love our country to the core, and want to maintain our Constitutional Republic.

1000 Vets - There are MILLIONS! - NOT IMPRESSED at all.
Vindman is an insubordinate fat slob who received a Purple Heart for being in a vehicle hit by shrapnel from an IED. He returned to duty NEXT DAY!? What was his injury?

I support the President’s statements and believe that both Vindmans need to resign their commissions.

REMF Vindman is not squared away. He needs close supervision and attention from his superiors. Preferably at Leavenworth.

I was surprised to hear that Vindeman is a "Ranger"
But a Vet and Vietnam combat vet (my brother-in-law) said he's 'West Point Ranger' -- Meaning he did not go to Ranger school, but was given more of an 'honorary' Ranger ribbon.
Can anyone shed some additional light on that?

I’d bet the American Legion could get a list of 100,000 supporting putting Vindman in jail....

Heck, I’ll take it a step further and suggest the LtC could very well be a Ukrainian plant - ie., a double agent.
