If he agreed to not go on social media as part of his release which it looks like he did, then he violated that and I have zero sympathy for him. He knew the rules. If he did it on purpose to force the issue whatever that may be, that's a different story.
While I agree with his plight I'm not backing down on this. He knew the terms and conditions. He also knew if he violated them he would go to the brig.

This was not a surprise to him as he knew it would come. If you're going to make a bargain, you must honor it. No matter what you think of it. If you don't want to abide, don't sign.

Which would lead one to believe that the brig was his desired destination...

The "bargain" that you refer to was based upon a different understanding or "contract" between the LTC and the Marine Corps.

In this situation, the Marine Corps appears to be using the typical communist playbook tactic of moving the goal posts/changing/politicizing the "contract," at its leisure, to suit its agenda.

The LTC did NOT agree to such, when he originally signed up.

And honoring the Oath to Protect the Constitution, how does that fit in.

He was trying to get the GO's locked into General Courts Martials.

The Seals are going to push THEIR no-vax stance through General Courts Martials as well.

T'ain't over til it's actually OVER.

This is just STARTING to get fun,

Gots Pop Corn??



The LtCol has actually thought this through.

right now he's sitting in a big ol' canvas tent, pitched SQUARELY in the center of their OODA loop and they can't seem to figure HOW he has them out-maneuvered.

Boy did his HOMEWORK on his Staff assignments.

it'a early, and i've had a rough few days. can you explain this in dummy language for me?

thank you

I hope you are wrong, we need everyone.


Like I said in my earlier post, based on my on the ground observations looking at the numbers for my unit and my base, plus what I have been hearing secondhand from friends, its closer to 20% refusal, on average. You will absolutely have higher percentages of certain units (SOF for instance) that tell the DoD to get bent, but overall its a minority. On the bright side, 20% of the .mil and a majority of SOF is more than enough :)

I hope you are right; it's going to be a bloodbath when the festivities start.

HMMM

Maybe that 20% is mainly line units.

I would say about 10% from what I see and hear. Higher among civilians.

After his first blast, he wanted to have the JCS Court Marshalled. SERIOUSLY unlikely. The SEALS (below) have publically opted to receive general Courts Marshalls ove rthe vax issue. He's opting to do the same for his issues.
The Seals are going to push THEIR no-vax stance through General Courts Martials as well.

I maintain that the youngster actually did his studying as he did his staff assignments and learned how"Effectively(???)" his superiors were going to be able to react to his comments.

In terms of maneuver (Doz and a couple of our Land Warriors are likely to correct me if I am in error) the goal is to provide difficult to interpret information about your intentions and to gain advantage by getting "Inside their OODA Loop" meaning that they can't successfully Observe, Orient, Decide and Act appropriately. At the point where the LTC is at right now HE believes that his superiors are NOT able to effectively react to what he is doing, "sitting square inside their OODA Loop."

Clear as mud? Right?

That is still big numbers !

Have already seen reports of lg numbers of pilots walking away. Can't replace them with former truck drivers.

Military facing big problems. But that is what Joe's bosses wanted !

Martin Armstrong in today's blog claims that 46 percent of the military has refused the jab.

If all of these are discharged, the US military is finished-or are the core of the new Patriot army.

The good news is that, now, you'll be able to hear the door-to-door gun confiscation goons wheezing their way up the driveway.

"Enough" for what scenario? (rhetorical question)

"Enough" to withstand an onslaught from near-peer adversaries? (Note the plural form...)

Well, considering that every one of those SOF folks (at least in the cases of Army SF) is trained toraise a unit of fighters (size of unit somewhat dependent on rank or experience). I'm unsure of the rest of the SOCOMfolks and their training.
Rangers are trained to lead a unit they have stood up, IIRC.

I'm, unsure as far as MARSOC folks and SEALS as to whether they are pure Direct Action Door Kickers or trained to stand up units of fighters.

MIGHT take a while to handle peer/near-peer forces head-on, though the Peer/near-peer forces would be treated to a LOT of Asymmetrical guerilla activities...

Patriot access to military weapons, ammo, NV gear, personal precision strike munitions, comms, drones and controlling ground stations, air assets, missile/artillery, food and medical supplies, etc. will initially be a problem. Anti-drone "umbrellas" will be an immediate must, as well as effective countermeasures against loitering look-down and tracking tech garnering actionable intel for the communist opposition.

Shirley You Jest BRO.
Think of it this way. If a left winger was issued a gag order on a major media case and then violated said order, we'd be all over this board saying they should be incarcerated as they violated the terms of their release. That would be their just dessert. I'm saying this is NO different than that. That's ALL I'm saying. Not that I disagree with what he did or how much asshattery has gone on in the last 8 months.

The withdrawal from A-Stan was so monumental it will go down forever as a stain and abject failure on our military. Think Saigon on steroids. Bro.

i can honestly say i would not. it truly depends on the subject matter and the circumstances to me.

Shoulda simply ETS'd, got his honorable and THEN went off on his tangents.

Sounds like a plan, except for having to take the jab.
That is a deal stopper, raight dere.

There was nothing in the contract he signed when he became an Officer that said he had to be a guinea pig and take an experimental vax. Nor was there anything in that contract about enemies foreign and domestic taking over the military and pulling a coup, which is exactly what the 'Rona was. I am all about honoring my Oaths, but the other side keeps moving the goalposts. Not much wiggle room here.

The LTC is ALSO setting a leadership example for ALL of the troops, ALL of the services, to see and ponder - which way are THEY going to go on this whole jab issue?

This is what real leadership is all about, after all. LTC was prepared to fall on his sword and "ruin" a career trajectory/retirement future - in front of God and country - EVERY military member knows that this is what is happening.

And he swore his allegiance...not to a man or the 'position' that man may hold...but to the Constitution of the United States of America. In my eyes, He upheld his 'allegiance'. I salute him.
