Schiff whipped the press into shape rather nicely on that....."Panel, don't you all agree that there's really no need to hear from the whistleblower now -- we've been able to hear from who (he) heard from in composing the complaint."

Bingo. And the unbiased press was happy to oblige.

In other words, a vermin piece of shite

The term vermin encapsulates what they are perfectly, if you are familiar with the term vermin.

You can't question the patriotism or motives of any man on uniform...except for General Flynn...and pretty much every soldier, sailor or Marine that fought in Vietnam...and the Confederate military (even though by law they are considered US veterans).

I'm glad someone came out about this. Most everything I heard about Vindman was second hand information. I think there are a lot of other officers who could back LTC Hickman's account, sadly some of them are very similar to Vindman in thought and would probably carry water for him.

That's the picture of a definite closet catcher.

Wonder why he is not wearing specific theater campaign ribbons. Why the generic GWOT? When I see that it always strikes me as odd.


That's actually an easy one. The Afghanistan and Iraq specific campaign medals didn't exist until mid-2005. Any deployment to either theater between 2001-2005 counts towards a GWOT-E and can count in lieu of the respective campaign medal.

That's why I only wear 2 stars on my ICM even though my ORB says 3 because my GWOT-E is in place of one.

Notice he has 0 stars on his CIB. That means he's only deployed to combat once. Also the numeral on his OSR is a giveaway as well. Given that he wears a 25th ID combat badge, that's 2 (deployment + Hawaii) plus a KDSM (that's 1 more) plus I'm sure a EUCOM tour or 2.

Multiple DMSM awards = a lot of joint time, which is likely how he made O5.

You knew there was something to not like about him when the talking point “you can’t attack a decorated military hero” was parroted in unison by the democrats and media.

If I were ever in congress on a committee and saw an individual in uniform, I'd have a copy of that individual's record brief. If I saw the slightest uniform discrepancy it would be over.

Notice he doesn't wear a blue cord, yet he wears crossed rifles. That means he started off as an infantryman but is now a functional area officer, likely an FA47 (Foreign Area Officer)

And his Officer Evaluation Reports reflected NONE of that misconduct, so, he was Promoted to Lieutenant Colonel?

It figures.

I saw the same "drift to the Left" during my time in service


Same...but you cannot put any negative comments in any military evaluation unless you wish to refer them...
The weak sauce leaders above him cared not to address him or his attitude and thus the entire Armed Service suffers. I get it, the juice isn't worth the squeeze sometimes, but the enlisted come hard on bad behavior all the time...
The officers ALMOST NEVER ADDRESS BAD SEEDS AND BEHAVIOR AMONGST THEIR OWN...
THEY ARE SOFT they do not understand the crippling effect the lack of accountability has on the forces...it ripples hard and fast

Before you can even do that, it has to be documented on a 4856. I make it a point to counsel my officers quarterly as well as post exercise, positive or negative, in writing, but the vast majority of raters only counsel at the start and end of a rating period.

That's probably one of the main reasons many of my subordinate officers will likely advance further than I will.

Article from 2013
Obama's Military Coup Purges 197 Officers In Five Years

quote:

We have commented on some of the higher profile cases, such as Gen. Carter Ham. He was relieved as head of U.S. Africa Command after only a year and a half because he disagreed with orders not to mount a rescue mission in response to the Sept. 11, 2012, attack in Benghazi.


quote:

Rear Adm. Chuck Gaouette, commander of the John C. Stennis Carrier Strike Group, was relieved in October 2012 for disobeying orders when he sent his group on Sept. 11 to "assist and provide intelligence for" military forces ordered into action by Gen. Ham


quote:

Retired U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Paul Vallely, an outspoken critic of the Obama administration, notes how the White House fails to take action or investigate its own officials but finds it easy to fire military commanders "who have given their lives for their country." Vallely thinks he knows why this purge is happening. "Obama will not purge a civilian or political appointee because they have bought into Obama's ideology," Vallely said. "The White House protects their own. That's why they stalled on the investigation into Fast and Furious, Benghazi and ObamaCare. He's intentionally weakening and gutting our military, Pentagon and reducing us as a superpower, and anyone in the ranks who disagrees or speaks out is being purged."


BOOM

This. The officer corps looks the other way for each other all too frequently.

I’m sorry but this is not believable. This guy would not have had access to Schif or any of his staff and furthermore they would not have sent him to the IG if he somehow did.
Well, if this shitshow gets to the Senate, maybe we can hear from both of them (or a different version from one or the other).

Although the "What a minute?" Throws it off slightly, or is that on purpose?
