I thought the military was supposed to work differently, and that, unlike the private sector where blacks are essentially unfireable, the military can pretty much simply do the right thing when it comes to promotions, demotions, and reassignments, etc.?

She wanted to TRAIN DRILL SERGEANTS, and she couldn’t deal with and control personal animosity within her ranks? Please, this is the Onion, right?

With all the rampant racism and sexism its a miracle she managed to be promoted into the position in the first place. /sarc

I see you’re new here. Still, I don’t know how you managed to post the link (at post #3) without it being clickable.

She says her instincts tell her if she were male none of this would have happened.

So implicit in her statement is fraternization, at a minimum, with a subordinate or having night time relations.

Big no, no in any field. Unless you are Bill Gates...

From reading the comments section on a couple of the links there are a few references to padding her resume with advanced degrees from diploma mills.

Check-out the comments following the article.

Very interesting indeed.But she has nothing to worry about.The very *worst* that will happen to her is that she'll be placed on some sort of "inactive" status so she can get her full 20 year...or 30 year...retirement check. And it very probably won't be nearly *that* bad for her.She's got the daily double going for her...race and gender.And I'll wager every nickel I have that soon we'll learn that she's of an "alternative sexual orientation".Trifecta!

“MCC investigators have checked out King’s educational credentials and come to a shocking conclusion.

That’s the real smoking gun.

The command sergeant major’s master and doctor of divinity degrees were issued by unaccredited diploma mills! They’re not worth the paper they are printed on.

We found out King’s master’s degree in business management from Alameda College was granted her for “life experience” and cold, hard cash.

Her impressive sounding “doctor of divinity” degree came from the American Institute of Holistic Theology.

Once again, this outfit is unaccredited and sells diplomas for money.”
