Makes a difference if he was discovered exsanguinated.

FWIW, I care less about who than why. And I care nothing at all about the guy supposedly taking the dirt nap. :-)

If Obama was still in office, I’d be wanting an autopsy, real quick.

It’s HORRIBLE man!!
Everything I believed and thought our government stood for has been a lie.
I started suspecting during the second Bush administration.
I’ve been certain since the soft coup started.

My boss passed away this year, 58, died of a massive heart attack in his sleep. He was fit, a vegetarian, exercised, ran, jogged, mountain bike rider in the Santa Cruz Mtns, etc. It came as quite a shock.
To: Inspectorette
Thanks be to God that you are okay, Inspectorette! FR would be a poorer place without you.
My point was, and I admit it was probably poorly made as most of my points usually are (lol), that we should automatically be suspicious of any sudden death of one of our top commanders who dies in the midst of a known nest of professionally trained assassins, who have all the resources, cooperation and assistance of state actors at their disposal.
Maybe (maybe, I said, not certainly) we shouldn't even be sending out commanders who aren't in top condition on such assignments. It serves to muddy the waters, and the waters are muddy enough already. I wouldn't make it a hard and fast rule; obviously, there may be times when a the nexus of a commander's skills and aptitude uniquely qualify him for a given job, recent decathlon gold medal wins be damned... Okay, I've said enough. And I'm probably getting in deeper the more I say, so I'll stop here.
Again, very happy you're still with us, Inspectorette!

Unreal that an admiral would be sleeping in a hostile place without an armed guard! Hostile place?
Wasn't it about the first place EX-president obama visited?

Thank you. I feel blessed every day to be here, and I do thank God every morning and all through the day. My cardiologists have told me that I was an anomaly - LOL, but these things do happen.
I understand what you are saying - the circumstances could indeed be the result of dirty work afoot.

Huh? No HQs are sea-based. It’s been that way since......forever. No navy has a permanent HQ at sea. It’s not sustainable.
To: Salvavida
Other than the Secretary of the Navy and the HQ of the Marines, I expect the leadership of the Navy to be out on the Blue Waters.
navy leadersyhip to be on the Blue Waters.

You don’t have a military background I guess.
