"There are reports that LTC Schaffer was the subject of fradulent travel claims or phone bills - he may have been, but this would not be in the news if someone wanted him silenced. He was also a revered case officer from what I have been told; and thought out of the box."

From what I've read (came from Shaffer's personal lawyer when the story first broke), he was being crucified over less than $70 on a cell phone bill - he had a call forwarding on for personal calls and (he probably didn't even know that) it cost 25 cents per call.... anyway, that's his lawyer's story, that for under $70 which he was quite willing to re-pay, someone in the DOD was trying to savage his career and reputation.... makes you think someone was really really concerned about what a credible Col. Shaffer could do to THEIR reputation over the ABLE DANGER fiasco?????

I'm with you on this one. They were going after him with waaaaaay too much gusto.

I'm concerned they have more on him... he's got to be brave and just tell all. It's the only path to safety.
