Think of being some non-CHUD about to graduate from BUDS and seeing your commander in chief poo poo all over the values your trident is supposed to represent (in theory at least.)

"mr. president, help us take the military back from rampant politically correctness. we're trained to fight so let us fight like we train. my job is to fight the enemy and that night my wife burnt the casserole, she was the enemy and i defeated her. these liberals trying to punish me want us to just give in to the enemy, because they aren't true patriots like me."

I still suspect, corrupt SEALs aside, no unit is going to willingly work with Gallagher willingly, and he's going to be desk surfing probably if he does get to stay in.

I thought I'd heard somewhere he's already processing his retirement for the end of this month.

Presumably before they can strip his trident.

Yeah, I don't see why he'd want to stay in when he can hit the conference/book circuit after getting out. All this trident BS is just icing on the cake.

I guess every PAO in the DoD is having an aneurysm over his Fox News appearance though.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

seriously, what is left to prevent every mega-chud E-7 out there from public airing all their grievances with their leadership on fox loving news from now on?

i'd like to think that this guy's behavior throughout is just another indication of the serious failings of SEAL culture, but given this whole debacle it's only a matter of time before people are coming out of the woodwork from the active force complaining their UCMJ action for beating their wife was given because their leadership are "on a liberal vendetta"

The Navy has to be the most diverse of the services, right?

The last time I deep dived on the diversity reports the DOD publishes the Navy starts as the most ethnically diverse, then very rapidly gets pretty male and white (not as much as Marines, who are the most male and most white). Lots and lots of diverse sailors who do maybe one tour, then exit the service.

Army was most diverse at the highest ranks, racially. USAF had the most officers who are women.

It's been a couple years, and memory is imperfect, so I could be wrong.

Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?
I just read up on Eddie Gallagher and what in the world was that trial?!?

13th hour confession of someone with immunity going "oh, yeah, he definitely tried to kill the POW, stabbed him, posed with his corpse, boasted about it in text messages, but the guy was hurt so bad, the stabbing didn't actually kill him. Uh, I did by asphyxiating him out of Mercy." and this somehow leads to all charges being thrown out the window save for posing with a corpse?

Being able to go "Nah uh, you're not a SEAL, STOLEN VALOR!" Isn't as good as sending him to prison, but it'd still be cool.

I like to imagine Rick Perry is still the smartest person in the administration because he at least has the limited brainpower to realize he's not going to be able to run the clock out on this one and is instead moving to plan B.

:stare:

Yeah, my big question is what’s happening to the SEAL who fell on his bespoke tactical tomahawk for Gallagher and claimed he killed the wounded detainee. Even if he can’t be prosecuted, I’d like to think the Navy wouldn’t want him on a team anymore.

they probably made him an instructor
