What other source would you like? Were you ignorant of Obama’s purge?

See but that’s not what happened. The SecNav publicly said one thing and was doing something different in private. I spent many years in the Navy and I have talked to lots of my old shipmates about this and they all agree there is a military chain of command and if you are given an order you follow it. These assholes tried to subvert a lawful order and should be shite canned over it.

Can we get it on record that you don’t think what Gallagher was accused of doing by his peers was bad?

Have you seen the verdict?
NOT GUILTY!

Now then.

I guarantee almost everyone on this message board who praises the pardons either didn’t serve, or was enlisted and never commanded troops at any level.

I served from 02'-06' in the Army and went to Iraq in 03'....im as proud as ever in my President and CIC. The military system of justice convicted those guys (Lt Lorrance) under some bogus PC ROE put in place by our previous president. My soldiers always knew where i stood when it came to them protecting themselves in a foreign country in combat. God bless our President!!!

Based on this, I am certain that Huevos is NavyTiger, which explains its limited view since it resides and "commands" from a cubicle somewhere supposedly... Also is chicken shite with the alter...

I served 23 years, multiple deployments, multiple commands at several levels... What a bunch of pencil pushing REMF motherfrickers attempted to do to Gallagher should scare the shite out of every single living person in this country and I am damn glad he was found not guilty on the worst crimes he was accused of AND given a pardon on the bullshite "crime" he was convicted of...

I am also glad the civilian leader of the Navy was forced to resign because he refused and order from the CINC and I sincerely hope that the leadership that attempted this railroad is pushed out with the quickness...

There is no fricking room for this bullshite when we ask warriors, like Gallagher, to go and prosecute wars with dumb arse ROE that focus more on getting OUR folks killed than on killing the enemy...

Actually no. That’s an administrative action separate from a criminal conviction. The Navy should be allowed to administratively address the fact this guy acted dishonorably and violated the SEAL code of conduct. The Army does tab revocations for situations just like this.

If DJT wants to pardon him from criminal culpability, he can. I don’t agree with it, but I respect his decision as CIC. Just like I didn’t think Obama’s pardon of Manning was the right choice.

So what are we left with? Evidence that a Navy SEAL acted dishonorably. Whether or not the CIC reversed that on paper. The Navy should be expected to remove the guy’s Trident and separate him administratively just as they would any sailor who did the same combat record.
