Not only has he lost his job, and his commission, but it looks like he got his ass kicked as well!!; 5/7/13, 7:47 AM

That he was drunk makes it okay, so long as she was good-looking.; 5/7/13, 8:29 AM

But she was asking for it by walking in a parking lot outside a bar... right? Right?; 5/7/13, 8:37 AM

WTF? Obviously, all the branches of the service have people like this because of the allowance of women into the ranks.

This shit never happened when I was in. It makes me wonder, when I got out of jump school I was awarded "wings". After so many days in combat as an infantryman, I was awarded the "CIB". What does his award look like? Maybe the word sex with a red line through it?; 5/7/13, 9:19 AM

Not too likely. He isn't nearly high ranking enough to get away like that. He's likely facing a felony charge and court marshal. Conviction would mean probable jail time with loss of all pay and allowances with a dishonorable discharge. Do not pass go. Do not retire.; 5/7/13, 9:45 AM

Doesn't mean he had any aptitude for it.; 5/7/13, 10:09 AM
The Godfather said...: I know nothing about this, other than a very sketchy news report, so I won't comment on it. Looks like most other Althouse groupies feel the same way.; 5/7/13, 4:45 PM
Anonymous said...: So, actually, it's court-martial, and officers are subject to dismissal, not dishonorable discharge.

This story is very bad news for both the Air Force and the current military justice system.; 5/7/13, 5:31 PM
TWM said...: Just FYI, while sexual assault incidents have increased that does not mean ACTUAL sexual assaults have increased. Based on my time as an investigator in the Air Force back in the 1980s/1990s I know that many, and possibly most, of these allegations are proven to be false after investigation.

Of course that doesn't make for news . . .; 5/7/13, 8:22 PM
