I have huge respect for General Allen, he lead with honor and distinction in Afghanistan with genuine concern for the troops (foreign and domestic) under his charge. He is not someone to quit, that is not in his blood!

what do you make of it?

It appears that we had too little leadership and knowledge dedicated to the issue...and the little we has appears to be throwing in the towel? A military officer walking away during the middle of conflict because their spouse is sick, is my initials.

For the amount we are paying per trained soldier, they could pay me and I think I could find a few friends here on RP to join me? Now we are not going to have any grown up working on this?

Time to start digging fox holes in the back yard.

I always had a problem with the 4 corner triangle the derailed his NATO command - Paula Broadwell, Jill Kelley, David Petraeus and John Allen. There is something about Kelly that seems out of place. Humphries, the FBI agent informed by Kelly of the stalking emails from Broadwell, was a former Army captain and military intelligence officer and just happen to be a friend of Jill Kelley who sent her shirtless pictures of himself - remember Kelly is supposed to be married during all this. The lady went from a Tampa Bay top brASS party girl to the go between for top US brass and foreign leaders. The U.S. Central Command, based at MacDill is located in Tampa Bay

Kelley and her husband moved to Tampa a decade ago, and she quickly became the center of the social scene involving top CENTCOM officers, including Petraeus and Allen. Famous for her lavish parties she became known as the unofficial "social liaison" for MacDill and the surrounding community. However if you were anything less than a colonel, you could forget about getting an invite to one of her galas. She worked hard at becoming a fixture, even getting a special pass to MacDill which allowed her to breeze in and out: the pass, as you might imagine, has since been revoked. What makes this all stink is the mounting debt the Kelly's racked up - we are talking millions Getting sued from just about everyone they borrowed from. There are many more "strange" connections with a cancer charity were no one knows where all the money raised went missing. Mrs. Kelly smells a lot like a really attractive 37 year old intelligence officer stroking 60 year ego's. 20+ years younger, married, has a medical degree, and is rather attractive and likes to have inappropriate relationships with married personal in charge of our military and intelligence community - not weird at all. If not she missed her calling.

Just my guess, but he is resigning because it is way better than being fired. I am still trying to figure out why we still have "czars" anyway???
