#2 Being CSM wasn't reward enough for this Wasted piece of $%^&! (tm). He had to steal from others.

#3 Hey, wait! I thought that the courts have held that it is a First Amendment right to lie about your medals.
Of course, he did this in an official record, rather than bragging so he could pick up chicks.

#4 It is indicative of the current culture ... "I want whatever awards/promotions/recognition/money/etc. others have whether or not I have earned them" ...

#7 He got caught; he's getting busted.

Seems the skin color's a moot point.

#8 Really. Would everybody be less pissed off if a white guy did this? I wouldn't.

#9 Last week it was the Command Chief at the Naval Academy spending way too much money on entertainment and friends...... Is it possible that the Senior NCO ranks are certainly not what they once were, bastions of integrity and commitment?

#10 The time line of the CSM's self awards might make an interesting study. I can't imagine he woke up one day in 2007 after decades of honorable service, and just decided to make a raid on the PX badges and decorations section. As far as UCMJ action, I'd bet he'll be unceremoniously retired at the rank of E9 within 30 days.

#11 The Air Force is taking down their highest ranking NCO for sexual abuse charges as well.

As far as I'm concerned Charlie Danials had it right- Find a tall tree and a short rope. For all three of them.

#12 49Pan -

Are you referring to the USAF Chief - who was a potential CMSAF candidate - who was relieved for sexual harassment? That was a few months ago, but it's certainly in context here.

No. When was he up for Sergeant Major?

As far as UCMJ action, I'd bet he'll be unceremoniously retired at the rank of E9 within 30 days.

No bets. Two weeks is well within that limit.

#14 Yup, thats the one. A rash of bad ones here recently. Sorry to say.
