I spoke with the USMA Office of Public Affairs this afternoon and registered my shock and that this individual was given a Regular Army Commission . I don't care if this miscreant served as a Commander of a Klingon Battle Cruiser. There is no excuse for this behavior and as an avowed communist he has no place serving as a Regular Army Officer.

At this time I do now of sound mind reaffirm my oath of enlistment.
"I, SSG Hewett (RET), do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. So help me God."

I do think everyone should reread their perspective oaths and ponder what the founding fathers and framers of the Constitution and everyone from the birth of the nation who fought lived and died for these sacred principals did and are doing to keep them as did we all and all do now, and follow our sacred oaths and bring back into focus those principals we fight for. If you aren't for what we fight for and you have and have fought against and you take a knee and you are a Foriegn and or Domestic Enemy of the United States pack your bags and get out.

At first I thought this might have been some kind of a troll, or prank. Doesn't look like it now.

This begs the question, how does he get a security clearance? If I remember correctly, there are questions regarding membership to communist organizations.

Section 29 association

The first few questions do pertain to terrorism but there are questions asking the following:

Have you EVER been a member of an organization dedicated to the use of violence or force to overthrow
the United States Government, and which engaged in activities to that end with an awareness of the
organization's dedication to that end or with the specific intent to further such activities?

Have you EVER been a member of an organization that advocates or practices commission of acts of force
or violence to discourage others from exercising their rights under the U.S. Constitution or any state of the
United States with the specific intent to further such action?

Have you EVER knowingly engaged in activities designed to overthrow the U.S. Government by force?

If a junior officer on a ship behaved this way, the splash would be ignored.
