The No. 2 officer at the military command in charge of all U.S. nuclear war-fighting forces is suspected in a case involving counterfeit gambling chips at a western Iowa casino and has been suspended from his duties, officials said.
Navy Vice Adm. Tim Giardina has not been arrested or charged, Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation special agent David Dales said Saturday. The state investigation is ongoing.
Giardina, deputy commander at U.S. Strategic Command, was suspended on Sept. 3 and is under investigation by the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, a Strategic Command spokeswoman said.
The highly unusual action against a high-ranking officer at Strategic Command was made more than three weeks ago but not publicly announced at that time. The command is located at Offutt Air Force Base near Omaha, Neb.

Sure seem to be a lot of senior commanders getting purged errr caught.
Something about these moves against the naval commanders doesn’t feel right. This is not good, IMO.
Obama appointee?
Obama clearing the way for another of his “firsts”?
an anti-war, anti-nuke, minority, transgendered midget?
how many naval commanders have been framed so far by Obama?
or set-up?
gotta get all the "right" ones in place, you know....
Just like the Red Army 1938, all that’s missing is the one-way trip to The Lubyanka.
You forgot:
That may provide a big clue.
I’m so distrustful of this govt that I can believe that this was an orchestrated removal....
gotta get all the “right” ones in place, you know....
My thoughts, exactly.
He’s purging out the good flag officers.
I agree, and it's not just the Navy. There is something else going on. For awhile I just figured it was Ubama getting rid of senior officers so he could replace them with faggot-friendly types, but I am beginning to think it's something more than just that.
Aye.
This does smell.
As someone that high up, he’d be making big bucks - why would he get involved in counterfeit gambling chips? That’s peanuts compared to the career he had.
And if he really did have a gambling problem that bad, it would have shown up long before now, and he wouldn’t have been promoted this far up to begin with.
Right??
I think it has something to do with this:

THE PURGE has been going on since the Clintoon’s..
The Borg is cleaning up THE HIVE....
Military and Police types love following orders..
It’s the ones giving the orders getting purged..
The chain of command is like a Snake.. the whole thing follows the HEAD(s)...
Obama is getting rid of any commander with a set of balls. He’s afraid that the military will take him out like they did JFK.
