The author apparently was sleeping when the oath was given. He conveniently forgot the last part. 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."
Crozier choose a path that he had know would 1. violated operation security 2. Bypassed several layers of his Chain of Command. 3. Send classified information to people outside of the Chain of Command and without security clearances. Now he may have felt justified in doing this, but he certainly should have known that his actions would cost him his command. He bet his Eagles going public and he lost.
Modly's mistake is that he ran his big mouth in public rather that remaining silent, so no sympathy for him either.
All of the Joint Chief and Secretary positions are political. That's nothing new. They all serve at the pleasure of the POTUS.

Cpl (Join to see) What are we supposed to be believing? That Trump is an awful President and Commander in Chief? We knew that already, even you right wing Kool Aid drinkers know that, you just don't care what kind of damage he does.

That's your OPINION, bob! Even the left wing polls are saying differently. You know? The same pollsters that said hillary was going to win by a landslide. Its' sad that some people choose to be told how to think rather than just thinking for themselves.

SPC Robert Conway - My point would be that Obama relieved commanders and Joint Chiefs and did some vindictive shit to several of them and no one in the press cried about them. But my further point is that this guy is painting only part of the picture and leaving out that part of the oath just made him a liar.

Cpl (Join to see) So just so we are clear, the polls that support his approval are the same ones that predicted Hillary winning, and that is a GOOD THING in your mind? How does that work exactly? You what, nevermind, I don't want you to hurt yourself.
