Three military members working for the White House have been reassigned after having alleged inappropriate contact with foreign women during President Donald Trump’s recent trip to Asia, a senior U.S. defense official has confirmed to Fox News. The service members, who worked as part of the White House Communications Agency (WHCA), are being investigated for allegedly breaking curfew in Vietnam, The Washington Post reported Tuesday... In August, four Army soldiers working with the WHCA were reassigned after bringing women back to their hotel room on a trip to Panama with Vice President Mike Pence.

Women think with their big brain about sex, and their little brain for everything else. Men think with their little brain about sex, and their big brain for everything else.

How’s that?

Jerks. Didn’t this same thing happen on another trip in recent years past? Didn’t they learn anything?

Talk about blowing it. With an outstanding record, an E-4 or E-5 can join WHCA and (if they keep their noses clean), spend the rest of their careers at the agency, with advancement to E-9 virtually assured, and the ability to transition to a GS-12/13 job after retiring from active duty.

Best friend from my Air Force days spent almost four years at WHCA. Requested reassignment when Clinton was elected. As a man of great character, he told his superiors he could not serve under a POTUS with no morals or character. The Air Force “rewarded” his honesty with an 15-month assignment to Turkey. He still made CMSgt, and kept his honor and integrity intact.

“They are the WRONG PEOPLE to be working in that position!”

Having been TAD with WHCA once, I can tell you nothing has changed.

They are just a communications support unit...an officer and some enlisted guys who are very technical. They handle crypto mostly.

But, when they’re off work...they’re off work.

Official White House statement. “We are shocked and dismayed to find some soldiers who still enjoy heterosexual entertainment. We will organize volleyball tournaments and visits to museums on the next deployment for the soldiers morale”

Do it on their own time. Do not do it while on duty representing the US and POTUS.

All crypto is under two man control, minimum.

Absent the crypto these guys don’t really know anything damaging.

If they did in public where people could see okay, I’m with you. If they went in the privacy of a room, none of your business.

“When they miss curfew ...”

That should be the only charge.

Exactly, you shouldn’t miss curfew. That’s actually more serious.

WTF? In my 8 years in the Army, no one ever gave me a freaking curfew.

Best summer of my life was in '79, I was XO of a support detachment at a German anti-aircraft range in Northern Germany.

I was usually in charge as the CO was often back at home station 400 miles away due to marital problems. Never had a discipline problem, not one. It wasn't due to my awesome leadership, it was because my soldiers were having too good of time...we played as hard as we worked.

As the only Americans for 200 miles, we were novelties to the European women vacationing in the nearby town. My ladyfriend shared a house with two newly divorced friends of her, they were pretty wild, making up for lost time.

I didn't fraternize with my soldiers, although I frequently visited the local disco. More often than not, I'd be at the bar of the local hotel, keeping the owner company until he closed the bar down at 4 AM. I'd swing by my g/f's house for breakfast, then head on in to the post by 6.

I'm not sure I would've ever been promoted to 1LT in today's Army. My first unit (long since deactivated) provided air defense to 3 NATO air bases. My battery was 45 miles from Battalion HQ, I enjoyed the isolation. I took seriously the mantra that everything my unit did or failed to do was my responsibility. That cut two ways, i.e. if my neck's on the line, then let me do my job and stay out of my way. One BC dug it, the other didn't.
