Another DEI Female Commander Reileved Of Command

[Rotadom]

Not really. She proved herself both incompetent and political by saying what she did. Any competent senior officer should be able to quell any unrest in the ranks while NOT going political. She failed.

This is true when Republicans break with Trump's insanity?

Interesting.......
And your VP stand before the EU and have a speech about how bad we in Europe are that doesn't have proper free speech? How about yours? Does it only apply when it fits the opinion of the great leader?

In the military. Of course there is that oath to the Constitution. But that's a bigger story than military discipline and following orders.

Nope. Unrelated. The military follow orders and do not question political decision makers. She went off the reservation and went political with her communication. She might have intended quelling internal issues within the base arising from Vance's speech, but the way she went about it and what she said was straight out insubordinate and she WAS a senior officer. She knew what she was doing. She should be court-martialled but they went easy on her.

This was my thought too. Vance was NOT expected to visit the "space base", it was a last-second POLITICAL consideration because the space base had "raised walls" around it that media video equipment could not see through (unlike the older chain link fences at the Greenland Thule AFB).

Vance showed up, gave a jingoistic speech(essentially, "Greenland must bow to the inevitability of American rule and bend the knee accordingly") to what he THOUGHT was a 100% Murican audience, not realizing a good portion of those not in uniform were actually Greenlander citizens.

To say Vance's prepared remarks were not well received would be an understatement. Wrong speech for the wrong audience.

Civilian feathers were ruffled, and the base commander was tasked with repairing the damaged relations. She did so, and was hoisted on her own petard for "insubordination" and cashiered.

I expect we'll see this unfortunately more frequently in the coming years. It's not a good time to be a senior officer in the military.

Too many woke people in the military who haven't read the UCMJ. She could be prosecuted for what she said,

There is no free speech in the American military officer corps.

From bemoaning the number of males in Congress in 2015 to being an ardent supporter of 'diversity is our strength,' Chatfield was all in on the woke program.

...In comments made when she started as president of the Naval War College in 2019, which resurfaced and received backlash in 2023, Chatfield said, "I want to see members of this team offer each other respect for differences, for diversity, for the dialogue from which ideas and collaboration emerge."
In February 2023, former President Joe Biden nominated Chatfield for the role at NATO. A 2023 Daily Signal report stated that Chatfield’s LinkedIn account said, "Talks about #navalaviation and #dei." One post to LinkedIn stated, "Got my wings in ’89 and would have never believed I’d be a member of the Flag Mess standing next to CNAF [Commander, Naval Air Forces] at the 2nd annual DEI conference in ’22!"

I am shocked, SHOCKED, that the openly misogynist, racist, homophobic, mentally disabled noitall cheers when women are fired.

Who could see that coming??

How do you "pay for it" when you haven't held a job in almost 20 years?

No one is denying you the right to cry about your upset fee-fees, but we all laugh at you when you attempt to present yourself as some sort of expert on the UCMJ.

You might recall last month, when I called out your slimebrother HisArpy on his mischaracterization of military law. After numerous deflections and ascriptions, he finally broke down weeping and admitted that, although he is a member in good standing of the local bar association, everything he knows about military law he learned from "watching MASH".

vetteman served but was frightened by isis coming after him so he abandoned his origin story and we are now left with this simpering simp.

Tell us, did she violate article 88 of the UCMJ when she said she and her command do not support the positions of the President, Vice President, and/or the national command authority? So why don't "you" tell us.

Your problem is that you both lie and hallucinate a lot

Congratulations. Must have been rough for you at first having to set an alarm clock to wake up in the morning.

I see no value in discussing the vagaries of military law with a civilian.

Your ascription and personal insults directed at veterans are noted.

STFU, Rot Down South

Insubordinate US Space Force Colonel Relieved of Her Command​

By

April 11, 2025




Colonel Susan Meyers of the U.S. Space Force, stationed at Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, was relieved of her command following an email she sent to base personnel.

The email criticized Vice President JD Vance’s visit and expressed concerns that the issues discussed did not reflect the situation at Pituffik. According to official statements, Meyers was removed due to a “loss of confidence in her ability to lead.”

Another DEI left-wing nut with a chest full of administrative BS sent packing. The irony is rich. Back during the Cold War, the media would poke fun at Soviet generals who looked like walking Christmas trees with medals for “exemplary pen sharpening” or “not dying during a training exercise.” Now, we've decorated U.S. officers with rows of ribbons, many of which are for things like attending a training course or being stationed in a certain location during a specific time period. It’s not that the awards aren’t earned, but the system definitely reflects a vibe of inflation where quantity outpaces meaningful distinction. There is a significant difference between the Combat Action Ribbon and the Joint Service Achievement Medal. Some would argue it’s a symptom of the bureaucratization of the military, where paperwork, optics, and "career progression" can start to matter as much as, or even more than, combat readiness and actual warfighting experience.

Do you think they were tweeting directly at her?

Possibly smarter than you assume Chloe. Definitely her email was outside normal chain of command requirements, but with retirement coming up who wouldn't want an early mark from a posting in Northern Greenland

Vance apparently, was critical of the fact that the Danish and Greenland flags were flying alongside the US flag, although this recognition of sovereignty is a requirement of the US/Danish treaty governing the base.

The smart way to deal with this would have been to require her commanding officer to deliver the severest reprimand and place it on her record, then require her to serve out her remaining time at the post.

Yeah, I'm torn over this one.

Vance was way out of line with what he said and no doubt he managed to divide the personnel on the base, given it's a joint operation. How she addressed it was out of line, but it was necessary to do something. As the Base Commander, it's not like she could do nothing and leave things to fester. I'm afraid at heart, Vance is still a Corporal, with a Corporal's limited understanding of command responsibilities. He created a situation that the Base Commander had to deal with, and then fired her for dealing with it. Colonel Meyer did what was necessary, probably not in the best way, and she paid the price. Good for her.

Mind you, if I were the Danes, I'd probably close the base and send the Americans home.

Military personnel often have to deal with dipshits in command positions. It's the nature of the beast and you learn to stay between the lines and keep your mouth shut when you disagree because disagreement with your superiors isn't within your TOS.

It's a lesson most learn while they're in the service. This commander, apparently, did not. Either that or she felt that her position as a base commander gave her authority to criticize her superiors with impunity while publicly announcing her disapproval of their political strategies and efforts.

What she forgot is that her JOB is to say "Yes Sir!" when she's told what to do, and then go back to her post and figure out a way to get that done. No more, no less. She did both more and less while undermining what she was told to do. Which is why she was fired. Had anything gone wrong, or resulted in the loss of life/injury or use of military supplies/readiness, she'd have been courtsmartialed and sent to the MCDB in Leavenworth.

Strictly speaking she should have been court-martialled anyhow. Regardless of anything else, Trump is the C-in-C, and their are strict rules in place that she transgressed, however well-meaning. That Vance is a dipshit is not an excuse. Biden was a dipshit too. That she was only fired is lenient. LIke I said, I'm torn. There was a situation, its obvious, or she wouldn't have felt she had to say anything but she handled it inappropriately.

The dividing line between a requested resignation, a BCD discharge, and a courtsmartial is the answer to the question of; what harm was done? In this case, little harm was done and a public disapproval/termination is enough to restore the proper chain of command and respect for that chain of command in both the military and the eyes of the world.

Don't forget she was fired, not asked to quietly resign. That's a BCD and it's on her record forever. She gets no military benefits either.

Isn't it about time that Nofuckall whined about the DEI female Secretary for Education who doesn't know the difference between AI and A1 sauce?

A children's entertainer being promoted to that position purely because she's got fake tits and sucks up to the Narcissist is classic DEI in the eyes of the MAGAts (because they're not bright enough to know that DEI is really a precaution against discrimination, not grounds for it).
