“I had more cpts loose their command then Carter has Liver pills.. Just be cause of one lable cost them their command...Can you guess what that lable was.. if you can/ I think not.”
I spent more than 20 years on active duty - SSG (E-6) to OCS and retired as a major. Was a squad leader, platoon sergeant and commanded several companies. Sarge’s statement that officers lost their commands due to their political “labels” is just plain bs. I suppose I could see it happening in the guard or reserves, but that would be a HUGE stretch. “Sarge” is certainly not representative of the many fine NCOs I served with, both as an NCO and officer, during my career. In fact, by his rhetoric, I would deem him an embarrasment. Glad I spent my time in infantry and armor units and didn’t have to serve with him.
