Excellent question. The unwarranted attacks on Major Donohue make my blood boil.
On the other hand, the very idea that a retired major could exert “command influence” over an active lieutenant general shows the trashers don’t know what they’re talking about. Neither did they have any understanding of the kind of man that Major Donohue is.
It should be a simple matter of considering the source, but I find it impossible to let these kinds of attacks go unchallenged. Especially since I know very well the good that Major Donohue has done and continues to do.
Doesn’t it make one wonder why the attacks? Maybe, just maybe, it is a matter of pure ego. Major Donahue does his great work behind the scenes. He is no chest thumper but I can’t say the same for those who have incessently attacked him...and all without proving one allegation?
Now that Larry Hutchins is “out of California”, I wonder who and how many will leave CA and actually go see him.
I know one that will...a retired Marine Major who could care less about getting any “credit”. And at his own cost to boot.
