LTC Vindman retires, was he right or wrong? What about the second and third order effects?
Aside from the usually partisan (and superficial) comments regarding LTC (R) Vindman, is there a lesson to be learned here? We had a sitting US senator holding up promotion for 1000 senior officers to allow for his promotion. Whistleblowing. Polarizing politics and the politicalization of the military seems to be here for the duration. While the retired could easily just take pot shots from Ft. Living Room, here's my question. How can currently serving members truly remain apolitical? In a world where one callus post can end your career, use some judgment if you elect to weigh in. Was he right? Would you have done the same? Was he dead wrong?

I used to come to this site and enjoy reading comments and searching for friends. After reading many of the comments about vinderman and his action and his CinC I am through with another page in my social media journey... this one article makes rally look exactly like twatter before Elon took over and the DJT haters bailed ... so long troopers ... it has been real, but not really real

Colonel Vindman is yet another of the thousands of good people whose careers has been damaged by the deranged and incompetent Donald Trump!
