Another pushback...

quote:

Just days after Vice President JD Vance's March visit to Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, the installation commander sent out an email to the base distancing it from Vance’s criticism of Denmark and its oversight of the territory, Military.com has learned.

Col. Susan Meyers, the commander of the 821st Space Base Group who also oversees the Pentagon's northernmost military base, sent a March 31 message to all personnel at Pituffik seemingly aimed at generating unity among the airmen and Guardians, as well as the Canadians, Danes and Greenlanders who work there, following Vance's appearance.

She wrote that she "spent the weekend thinking about Friday's visit -- the actions taken, the words spoken, and how it must have affected each of you." "I do not presume to understand current politics, but what I do know is the concerns of the U.S. administration discussed by Vice President Vance on Friday are not reflective of Pituffik Space Base," Meyers wrote in the email, which was communicated to Military.com.


Who does she work for?

Does she think she is the head of the chain of command?

She assumed command of the base in July 2024.

quote:

The Space Force did not respond to Military.com questions sent Wednesday morning asking about additional context for Meyers' email.

It was not immediately clear whether Meyers was still serving as commander of the 821st Space Base Group following her email.


I should hope not... she took it upon herself to get in her feelies and go against Vance's remarks.

What's with all of this insubordination, malicious compliance, vows to 'wait out' the next four years?

I love when the leftists out themselves. Their rage and hatred of Trump is their greatest weakness.

Technically he’s not, but she can and should likely be slapped for speaking out about it the way she did.

He was there representing the administration's will. So, he is far above this chikadee.

I can understand her having 'thoughts and feelings' about what he said... but she should not think for a moment it was her place to inform others her thinking on the issues in a way that pushes back on any official position, posturing, politicking, etc...

Would you say the same if a commander came out against DEI under the Biden administration?
