LTC West is one hulluva sojer. He spent a few years with we Marines here at Camp Lejeune a few years ago.

Kearney had terrible advice from his SJA.

DEJA VU.

So when an SJA says "This is my recommendation" is that the signal for these generals to shove their heads up their a$$es?

I said this guy was a turd when I first heard about him tossing the Marines out of theater....now I’ve been proved correct. He should take the hint and retire his REMF butt before it’s too late. What a PC REMF POS!

I’m hesitant to denigrate most General Officers but I really have my doubts about this one.

I have been trying to put together a simple web search to fit together a profile of the good LTG.

Talk about your clasic black hole.

I did find him associtaed with RANGERS or at least a RANGER asociation.

The only canned bio was this little bit --
March 2005
Brigadier General Francis H. Kearney III, Assistant Division Commander (Maneuver), 24th Infantry Division (Mechanized), Fort Riley, Kansas to Commander, Special Operations Command Central, United States Central Command, MacDill Air Force Base, Florida.

Maybe I'm not looking in all the right places, but no books, no papers, no announcements as speaker, etc,etc.

'Bout the only thing I could find was about the latest bruhaha over the Marines and pressing charges on a couple of SPECOPS guys.

What did I miss??

I’ve looked a little in the past myself and what you came up with is about all I found.

If the results of this investigation are made public which I’m not convinced they will be, we may find out some more.

The glaring thing that strikes me as strange is that supposedly two separate investigations were done on the two SPECOPS guys and both cleared them but Kearney went for the charges anyway, very strange, IMO.

When pigs fly!!!! No way do I even want him near my home. Don’t you have some desolate places up there where you could put him? :0 )

Mr. Jones was notified this month that the IG Office had opened an investigation and was reviewing documents and conducting interviews.

Good. Lt. Gen. Kearney deserves a little look-see into his actions with these two cases.
