I hope this report is accurate.

Sort of good news. He should have been given a medal, not a reprimand.

Awesome news. His integrity won the day.
Now, I'd like to see his record expunged.

It was the lead story on the Fox5 Atlanta 10pm newscast. Labelled as a "Fox5 Exclusive" report. West's wife says the investigation was completed and the recommendation was a written reprimand. West is expected to come home soon.

Good. Rewrite interrogation procedures now.
To: mikegi
Yep, I first heard the news tonight on
The Factor, where Bill was interviewing the Col's attorney.
Finally, common sense prevails.

Reprimand - as in Article 15?
To: mikegi
The JAG that brought charges against Lt. Colonel West should be taken to the wood shed himself.

Col West's attorney was interviewed by O'Reilly tonight. The attorney said that the investigating officer would recommend that there not be a court martial but that he might be reprimanded. Likely half of his salary for two months and that he would not lose his pension. Details tomorrow likely. Excellent news.

Seems like those who were going nuts about a horrible miscarriage of justice jumped the gun a bit. Things worked the way they were supposed to.

Too little, too late.
The tenacity of officers in Iraq has been greatly diminished.

He should have gotten a medal and a promotion
