That’s a disgraceful comment.

Major Dobson had to pack his bags on short notice, taking Lakin’s spot in Afghanistan and tending to American soldiers wounded in battle He’s the one true hero in this whole pitiful affair.


Major Dobson testified that he had to leave a two year old child behind with two weeks’ notice to be deployed for six months and he had to miss his wife’s Bronze Star award ceremony because of Lakin.

Major Dobson simply testified to the truth of his deployment circumstance. Anyone who thinks it wasn't a pain for him has never been in the armed forces and forced to deploy on short notice. Heck, even in theater, when we were forced by circumstance to stop, pivot and go to the aid of another unit or operation, the sense of grievance was always palpable for the first day or so. It's just human nature.

Sounds like a nice tall tale. We've been told that Lakin was never actually ordered to deploy, so nobody missed anything because of Lakin. Also, let's ignore the warnings that Lakin gave well in advance of disobeying orders and let's ignore that President Stitch Lips hid like a 2-year-old child during this entire process.
