My take is that it is not leadership. Leadership is "follow me".

In that light, what's your take on the two soldiers who beat this Iraqi getting an Article 15 from West, followed by West pulling this stunt?

This came to light during an IG investigation. The Army doesn't kick off IG investigations for giggles & grins.

I haven't seen that yet. Beating is physical versus firing a gun and making a threat is mental. So I guess we need to release all the folks at Gitmo then?

I'm coming through one post at a time.

Did either soldier refuse the Article 15 and request a court marshall?
