Resigned, there's a difference.

Wow, heard about this on the radio this morning. Not surprised.

Yeah, I heard about this on the news.

I'm not surprised.....


He's still military and he was BLATENTLY insubordinate. you just don't do that. He's VERY lucky they let him resign rather than giving a dishonorable discharge.

Stupid idiot

What bothers me is, this isn't new to me, insubordination getting away with?
I'm in the military as well, not US Army though, and all of my current higher ups would be in jail for half the stuff they've done and yet can get away with it.
One member was busted down due to alcohol on duty and was charged with 9 other things WITH WITNESSES testifying against him which SHOULD result with him getting kicked out of the Navy... Now I still see him walking around here on base in uniform WITH HIS RANK BACK! Now if that's not some serious BS I don't know what is.
