Gallagher's brother wrote a pretty scathing opinion piece. https://www.navytimes.com/opinion/2019/11/27/op-ed-navy-corruption-and-the-gallagher-case/

According to the article, no.

Then fact you can be found guilty by 3/4rds majority (was 2/3rds until a year ago) and can have down to eight members on a panel (where it used to be five) by people who outrank you, not a "jury of your peers" is insane. The non-unanimous requirement to convict is the military justice system to get around hung juries (sts). But the Gallagher case is a good example at why the military justice system isn't proficient at handling high profile trials. I wonder if Gallagher would've even went to trial if the DOJ had tried the case? I'm sorta of surprised the amount of active duty, and former, military members who don't understand that those appointed and uniformed in the DoD, follow the orders of the CINC. The CINC doesn't follow the orders from those appointed in uniformed in the DoD. I wouldn't be surprised to see RADM Green submit to retire soon as well.

I just FOIA requested it.

I thought it was interesting that a statement from someone on her staff said that she'd say "this is the first I've heard of it" and claim ignorance...which is the exact thing she did when to the IO asked her questions about some her TDY's and expenses and confronted with evidence contrary to what she claimed.

Doh

More like GS-15/SES since it was a GO.

This happened to me with a FTU student I diverted with. Officers receive GTC’s at USAFA, UPT, etc. Enlisted don’t received one until they’re at their first permanent duty station. I diverted with a student Boom, A1C, who had no GTC. He also had no personal credit card since he was 18 years old. I had to put his lodging and M&I on mine, then work with the OG RA/CTO to get reimbursed. It was a pain, but worked out.

After reading it, it made sense that her former Vice reporter her to the IG. The same person who she gave an LOC to two weeks after taking over as Comm.

Here’s her ROI. https://drive.google.com/file/d/124mxCFQTc-7m1lW7kT_egdNnf_vpq-4v/view

Part of TAMI was to convert some rated staff jobs into enlisted billets. There are plenty of Career Enlisted Aviators hidings out in staff because they suck at flying, etc.

"Divorce is forever...marriage is how long you can hack it." "No good married ended in divorce." " Divorce gets strong likes it's a piece of oak..no one every says my divorce is falling apart." "If you're in a good marriage, stay in it. If you're in the best marriage ever, stay in it. I'm just saying if you got out it'd be better." - Louis C.K.

Semantics. One could argue the entire process is designed to remove an elected official, not just the actions by the Senate. Six to one, half a dozen to another.

Turnover is normal, however this amount of members is not. https://www.brookings.edu/research/tracking-turnover-in-the-trump-administration/ And the House doesn’t have to do an impeachment inquiry. Technically they just start articles of impeachment now. No where in the Constitution does require them to have an inquiry, call witnesses, etc. Of course it’ll never be approved by the Senate. But even being impeached, though not approved, has collateral consequences. Clinton was disbarred by the Arkansas Bar for being impeached due to lying under oath and obstruction, though it wasn’t approved.

Any state in the South is usually going to side with the mother. At least you weren’t married for 10+ years so she’s be entitled to 50% of your military retirement, if you ever stayed in to get one.

I mean, having a huge turn over multiple times in your administration and having the House initial an impeachment inquiry isn’t exactly a positive status quo.

Some people here are conflicted about his speech because they’re Trump supporters, and they like Mattis, but don’t know how to tap dance around addressing Trump’s clueless insults of Mattis. Also, McRaven apolitical? Sure 😂 https://www.nytimes.com/2019/10/17/opinion/trump-mcraven-syria-military.amp.html

Things to do: 1. Start searching for ANG/AFRC flying units you’d like to be apart of. 2. Get in writing from your cadre that the AETC memo is false (they won’t). 3. Read every thread on this forum about the current state of the Air Force and make your own judgement. Good luck

I’m sure he was a Commander at some point, especially being a Jabara Award winner, but JFC. https://popularmilitary.com/usaf-colonel-admits-to-having-pornography-of-children-as-young-as-3-years-old/

Those that think AETC is a cakewalk assignment, never taught in AETC. I worked much harder instructing in AETC, day-to-day, than I ever did in AMC. I just dealt with way more knee jerk reaction that would fuck up your scheduled day events in AMC.

They do when they take on 20K+ of fuel and are high gross weight.

Fairchild started going on that good deal AFTER I had just PCS'd to Altus. I've always been horrible with timing.
