The Army is really getting on my nerves these days. Take for example the report presented to the media today about the Hasan murders<\/a> at Fort Hood by mega-moron and drama queen Togo West;<\/p>\n

\n

As many as eight Army officers could face discipline for failing to do anything when the alleged shooter in the Fort Hood rampage displayed erratic behavior early in his military career, two officials familiar with the case said, speaking on condition of anonymity before the report\u2019s release.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Notice that Hasan is still an “alleged shooter” but eight Army officers are going to be disciplined for not doing anything about him. Does anyone really believe that after these Army officers are disciplined, pogues will stop covering for each other? Does anyone think that commanders won’t discipline, fire, or otherwise punish any Muslim subordinate for acting like Hasan?<\/p>\n

Like does anyone think that LTC James Billings will be punished? LTC James Billings was that “Army Officer” character who threatened to blow in the team at TAH for posting Hasan’s ORB. Why should Billings be punished? Well, he posted a comment here anonymously and current Army policy dictates that Army officers “own” their comments by not hiding behind a screen name – especially when conducting Army business. He threatened to call the CID on us if we didn’t take down the ORB (not realizing that it had been copied hundreds of times already)…and then he did. That’s Army business.<\/p>\n

Billings is a serious pogue. His AKO profile lists his assignment to Fort Benning during Desert Storm as a “deployment”. I hear the SCUDS were hitting Fort Benning daily. Billings is a PAO officer currently assigned to the Pentagon (surprise!) who thinks the rules don’t apply to him…but he’d come down like a ton of bricks on some poor private using a screen name, I’ll bet you.<\/p>\n

I’m not in the Army anymore, and I’ve never wanted to stomp a mudhole in an O-5’s ass like I want to stomp one in Billings’ ass. Drama queen pogue.<\/p>\n

More drama queen shit? How about this article (it’s a very one sided report, but it sounds too true) from Army Times<\/a>;<\/p>\n

\n

An Illinois National Guard soldier in Afghanistan has been charged by the Army with possessing child pornography over pictures of a young relative his mother says she sent him.<\/p>\n

Terri Miller of Galesburg says she sent her son, Spc. Billy Miller, pictures of the little girl to help him get over his homesickness.<\/p>\n

The pictures show the child in a swimsuit playing a wading pool and sitting on a truck. In one, the girl is wearing a swim suit and part of her buttocks are exposed.<\/p>\n

The Army says Miller will stay in Afghanistan until his court-martial. His unit came home last August. Miller faces jail time, if convicted.<\/p>\n

Terri Miller says the pictures are innocent. She says her son is close to the girl.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
