ANd he lied. records show he met with Morrison and gave him the edits the same day. Why do you keep ignoring it?
I am not ignoring this point, doc, I just haven’t gotten to it yet. This thread is one of about 10 things I am doing.

Again, this may be a question of the timeline ... Jul-10 vs Jul-25. It may be a matter of the time of day. The call was early morning, and it takes hours to prepare and circulate a memo. Assuming that the Vindman comments re the memo were indeed the same day, it may have been late in the day and the meeting with counsel may have occurred in the interim. As I recall, Morrison was actually pretty noncommittal about whether it WAS the same day. He was asked a leading question and answered that it sounded about right.

Of course, none of that goes to any of the questions presented in the OP.

I gave you the video sir of the testimony. I literally linked you to it.
I watched it, and it does not say that which you claim.

For example, you seem to say that Morrison and Vindman met regarding “edits” on July-24, but Morrison does not say that. He says that they received the memo the same day and that he and Vindman met “fairly quickly” after that. He decidedly does not say that they met on the same day.

You did what you always do. You took an ambiguous piece of evidence and twisted it to present in a manner supporting your position.

So very, very typical. You present ambiguous info, and then you refuse to even consider any interpretation of that info which does not support your preconceptions.

It is one of many reasons that thoughtful posters do not take you seriously.

His first stop for voicing his concerns wasn't his direct supervisor, it was a lawyer.

Do you think that is normal behavior?

Then as a military officer, he should’ve known to wait until he could contact him.

You never EVER go outside of the chain of command. And he knew that.

All you need to know is he didn't follow the chain of command. As former military I can tell you this is a huge violation and only can be done on purpose.

Muddies what?

Do you understand that a military chain of command and the hierarchy of a civilian administration are NOT the same thing and that a military officer placed into a civilian structure must balance the two?

If he’s going to wear that silver oak leaf on his collar, then THAT is what’s supposed to take precedence over any civilian considerations. Not negotiable.

No, he must not. He is still a military officer. Period.

I had a couple positions where I mostly worked with civilians. It was expected that I followed the chain of command, even if my superior was a civilian. If I had gone around my boss without consulting him prior to, or immediately after, I would have been up shite creek.

ETA: This is a subject I have direct experience with. You do not.

Yep. And as he always does, once shown proof, tries to find away.... anyway that it can be the way he wants it to be.

Then he resorts to attacking the person because he cant defens it.

you are correct, I have never served in the military. So let me ask you a few questions.

In a purely military hierarchy, must every issue go directly to the commanding officer? Are there not issues that should be taken up with the XO, or the personnel officer, or the supply officer, etc.?

In a blended military/civilian environment, are there not issues on which a military officer would be required to follow the protocol of the civilian hierarchy? For instance, if a military officer has a problem with a civilian secretary, is he required to take that to his direct (civilian) supervisor, rather than approaching the human resources director?

That is absolutely incorrect. There is no balancing. If you are active military you follow the military chain of command 100%. Your supervisor will instruct you what you are to do with civilians.

Hush. Hank knows better than you. Just ask him.

You already answered his question. He didn’t believe you because he is without bias, wise and kind.
