what do you make of Gen. Carter Ham of AFRICOM and Rear Adm. Charles M. Gaouette of the USS Stennis carrier group both being relieved of command in October?


I think they both got relieved for wanting to override orders to stand down and instead respond to the call for help.

Met Ham's replacement last Friday Night. Great soldier, Dave Rodriguez. He was supposed to do it in Spring.

A lot of G.O.s and Admirals should resign in protest at the gross negligence of the Obama Administration. And CJCS Dempsey needs firing. Total politician and water carrier...
