What a travesty! Will the real Military Warriors step up and put a stop to this insanity??
OMG! Talk about getting rewarded for evil!
I think he’ll do an Aaron Hernandez!
This is just nuts!@
WTF?
I guess ole’ Chelsea will be getting an honorable discharge also. He/She will be hanging out at a Legion bar on the prowl ready to pick up a red-blooded American serviceman near you...
Wtf
Isn’t that guy still in military prison for taking a selfie on that submarine?

“Healthcare” in this instance means cosmetic “surgery.”
It didn’t work for Klinger in M*A*S*H either. /sarc
* Will remain on active duty
* Will be an unpaid soldier
* Will remain a Private
* Will have full access to health benefits.
What sort of status is this? Are we describing a ward of the state?
Maybe this has to do with the Security Risk ‘Chelsea’ will remain for the rest of his life. Is idea that enemies of the United States (both foreign and domestic) would want to kidnap or straight out hire someone like Chelsea to provide inside info? That is the only explanation I come up with.
The demonrats have been trying to destroy our military for years-
Lot of Evil people leading our nation and troops-
Just think-— WHY would O’bummer pick this piece of
S___ to commute his sentence?- slap at the military?
Hide the the OTHER THOUSANDS!! that he released back
against the U.S.A. and into the public?
only the demonrat party knows for sure
He has some leave he’s going to burn up. That’s it. It’s how the Army system works, even for dirtbags like him.
The punitive discharge has not cleared yet? NONSENSE!
“Chelsea” will revert to being Bradley once clear of the Stockade. Thanks Obama.....sucker.....
bammy is responsible for this. He used the military for political gain. bammy is a good-for-nothing bastard.
