Post’s Comments Generate Calls for Congressional Hearing | Arizona Daily Independent
Comments made by Major General James Post, Vice Commander of Air Combat Command, that “anyone who is passing information to Congress about A-10 capabilities is committing treason” has sent shock waves through the USAF and the military ranks in general.
