What do you Army types think of this guy? Is he just some obscure military bureaucrat, or are there any reports on whether he is good or bad at his current job? Has anyone heard anything about him, or is kind of silly to think anyone may have heard about him?
I don’t know how that works in the Guard.
I’ve been in the DC area for the last 29 years and most of that connected with the US Army. I’ve never heard about him. I’ll have to ask one of my folks who is in the DC Army National Guard about him. The DC ARNG is seldom in the news here, usually during the winter snow storms or “the DC ARNG Band is performing....”
the “Adjutant General” is the key position in state National Guard organizations and has a political element to it in that the AG is appointed by the state govenor.
I take this as a manufactured publicity by the Anti-Trump forces & Dems of a normal function during a change of presidents, wherein the new president accepted the resignation. No one seems to be complaining that Ms. Lynch, Mr. Kerry, and the remainder of the cabinet officers are also being “fired” at 12:01 pm on Jan 20.
