Also from someone who knows, it is very very odd that he has a CIB and a PH, but no BSM. That is extremely strange.

I have come across more than a few shitbags in the Army and just watching this guy I would put him in that category.

I'm Navy, but I thought you had to be in actual combat to get a CIB. Not a convoy passenger.

Why is he wearing the 2CR Regimental insignia? Is he currently assigned there?

the longer he testifies the more disgrace and dishonor he brings to that uniform.

He's a partisan hack, the questioning about Biden's admission and his inability to say that would be wrong revealed that. PERIOD.

I know they are in Vilseck and he is a Director for European Affairs. It definitely would fit because all the frick ups and retards are in 2CR.

Regimental affiliation. Combat arms can affiliate with any combat regiment. Combat Support are affiliated with their branch. For instance I was Signal, so I could only be part of the Signal Corps Regiment.

I also want to know the circumstances he received the CIB


Infantryman deployed to combat. Pure and simple. When I was an Infantry Battalion S6 during OIF 1, I and my team were outside the wire running missions constantly and one of my peers (Battle Captain in the TOC) never left the TOC, yet he received a CIB because he was 11A.

The requirements to earn a CAB are more stringent than those for a CIB.

PH was for an IED incident, severity of injuries unknown.

He has a Ranger tab, not SF. Big, big difference. Ranger school is pretty tough, but definitely not SF Q course level tough.

A PH for an officer can be a fairly minor wound or an extremely serious wound. Hell John Kerry got a purple heart for a little more than a scratch in theater.

He clearly isn't combat worn you can tell that by looking at his butterball face.

Not completely true. I am authorized to wear the 12th Infantry Regimental Crest because I was the S6 for 1-12th during OIF 1.

He just said it was very minor and immediately returned to “combat”

He can add perjury to his long list of accolades. It's crystal clear one of the persons he spoke to about the phone call is Eric "the leaker" Ciaramella.

You mean the infantry cord? You only wear it when you are assigned to an infantry unit.
