What kind of officer goes on record that Her personal secular beliefs count but another peoples religious beliefs don’t?
A very poor, arrogant one.
It is sad, but wise i think.
She wants to see bigots??? Just let her get captured by Iranians. They’ll make a REAL woman out of her before they disembowel her and feed her to the goats!
The man was doing his job, he couldn’t avoid saying and doing what his job called for.
With the exception of the 11% payraise, under his watch.
That was under Reagan.
It was like a cloud had lifted when Reagan took office.
In the AF, 1st Sgt is a job title, not a rank. What he was doing was right in the core of his job description:
8F000 - FIRST SERGEANT
Special Duty Summary: (Note: This is a special duty assignment job. It is not available to new enlistees). Principal advisor to the commander on all issues related to the enlisted force; and exercises general supervision over assigned enlisted personnel. Related DoD Occupational Subgroup: 521.

Represents the commander at base meetings and councils, and when conducting tours through unit areas.

Coordinates the resolution of complex problems with the supervisor, member, commander, and appropriate base agencies. Maintains liaison with base agencies to ensure availability of services for unit members.

Works closely with the command chief master sergeant to ensure enlisted members understand and are prepared to execute the mission. Develops and executes specific goals, plans, and objectives to address issues related to enlisted members.
In other words a senior NCO liaison between the troops and the Brass.
A good commander would be well advised to listen to this man.
He has a temperament that is leveler than the Major.
The troops can smell that stuff.
I wonder where the command chief master sergeant stands on the matter?
No, I'm afraid not. Obama is merely the hand-puppet of a much more sinister and pervasive malevolent force. Please remember that Obama is simply a symptom - an abominable symptom, to be sure - of a very powerful evil that has engulfed society. It existed when Obama was in diapers. Now, it controls him.
And also remember that the Military is the social petri dish.
Absolutely. He is using the Military as a microcosm of the model he wants for society entire.
Exactly.
And believe me, part of this Majors attitude is personal, but the green light is coming from the White house.
Satanists and homosexuals now run the military, if I may be so blunt. I am still looking for work outside of the federal government, because my time will come (again) just as it did for this Christian man.
Things are so queer nowadays.
That commander is a bigot and definitely not the military type — which is apparently how you get ahead in today’s military, unfortunately.
