With 26, going on 27, years of service, he's still a made man when it comes to retirement. He'll be pulling a hair shy of $7K/month, and that's if he gets busted down. Still, depending on the circumstances, that's a perfectly good career in the civilian sector that just got shot to hell.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's only if you screw the people you make the policies for, no? Otherwise he'd be a crappy politician.
True, but he's trying. He's trying to accrue several glaring deficiencies before he makes his bid for office, that seems to be the way it's done.
Either the Army still has a way to go to catch up with the Navy in this regard; or the Army has kept it out of the press.
"Awesome" it is. http://news.yahoo.com/us-general-charged-adultery-other-sex-crimes-193011953.html "Forced sex" would be rape, right? So....why not call it rape? Then there was this interesting nugget I wasn't aware of: SUH-WEEEEET! General Officers posing? Right on...must be freedom of speech or something since Stolen Valor doesn't exist....
Why the FUCK would you compromise yourself in the twilight of your illustrious career as an O7 just for a 30 second knee shaker? Regardless of how hot she is... That Court Martial Board will have so much Brass on it, it will amount to the GDP of a small Nation..LOL
Retirement.... if he is allowed to retire instead of resign in lieu of court martial (is that still in the UCMJ?). IF he is court-martial-ed, that can result in a federal felony conviction and the status as federal sexual offender. NOT something that adds to a resume.... One of the articles on this states that changes to the UCMJ were made this year. What changes?
Earlier story said he came to the Division from JSOC, awesome for both units. I also find ZERO in regards to BG Duff's CM. Does anyone here remember seeing a story about him? Intereting that they could have CM'd a BG and not one news story appears about it?
He has probably been doing this, and getting away with it, for much of his career. He probably got caught up in the power and thought himself untouchable.
They shouldn't let him retire as a BG. They should do a lengthy and painful investigation, and make him retire at the highest grade in which he served honorably. If that's captain... oh well, shouldn't have been a shitbag officer.
