Ekblad708249<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Having read quite about this particular General in the past, I have to say that the Senate was right to not confirm his promotion ... frankly, he shouldn't have been nominated in the first place.Response by GySgt Wayne A. Ekblad made May 30 at 2015 1:11 PM2015-05-30T13:11:19-04:002015-05-30T13:11:19-04:00Cpl Jeff N.708282<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Hadn't heard the story on him previously. If true, he was out of bounds. Personal servitude is a no, no.Response by Cpl Jeff N. made May 30 at 2015 1:25 PM2015-05-30T13:25:42-04:002015-05-30T13:25:42-04:00PO1 William "Chip" Nagel708413<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Always found it interesting about officer appointments and promotions being controlled by a vote in Congress. Glad as an Enlisted Man I wasn't the victim of such External Politics for my advancement and retirement rank.Response by PO1 William "Chip" Nagel made May 30 at 2015 2:46 PM2015-05-30T14:46:22-04:002015-05-30T14:46:22-04:00Sgt Tommy Johnson726055<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Good riddance! What this Major General did makes me sick! Yet another example of someone who became too full of himself, forgot where he'd come from, failed to have mutual respect for his subordinates, and grew too big for his britches! Instead of being allowed to retire as a two-star, he should suffer the appropriate type of public disgrace David Petraeus received and be reduced in rank to Major, for retirement pay purposes.Response by Sgt Tommy Johnson made Jun 5 at 2015 2:14 PM2015-06-05T14:14:05-04:002015-06-05T14:14:05-04:002015-05-30T13:08:59-04:00
