Every media source clamoring to re-share a video that, in today's environment, is likey a career-ender... Without any knowledge of why this captain was reassigned or if it's even relevant.

Sadly, you’re right. Hope the PC zealots aren’t that bad after this many years. He had to have suspected it would come up when news of this came out.
matmacwc Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 Well this escalated, wonder if Maestro is brushing off his airline apps. 1
Siegzy Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 Yep. It’s viral. I wonder if rogoway got it here

BashiChuni Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 Two wrongs don’t make a right. No way the Col should go down for that video. But knowing today’s culture and Air Force... 1 3

But knowing today’s culture and Air Force... 2 It’s a very sad state of affairs when something that was found funny, and still is, 15 years ago, could possibly cost someone their career today. However, we all know that SiS being fired from her high vis job was going to most like give her a negative OPR and tank her young career too. Which Maestro most likely had no problems doing since he was probably “instructed” to do so by his boss when he funneled up her mistake(s) up the chain for their FYI. When he goes on about “regretting” making the video, I don’t really believe he did. I believe he only regrets that it became public and now it could possibly cost him his career.
Guardian Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 He’s going to be happier in the airlines. He should thank the AF if they make him walk away. 1
DEVIL Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 What I hate about this situation is that he was professional and reasonable in the statement that came out from Shaw, didn't mention any reasons for doing so, and who knows, spared her some embarrassment by just leaving it at that. Hopefully it doesn't come down to someone saying, "He isn't a bad leader she did X, he had no choice", and now her sh*t is in the street also. 3 1

HuggyU2 Posted February 14, 2019 Posted February 14, 2019 (edited) Rogoway should go to work for TMZ. Every time he requests an interview with anyone in DoD, they should simply forward him his article and say "Uh... no". Edited February 14, 2019 by HuggyU2 2 1
