James H. Johnson III who has been charged by the Army with forgery, fraud, lying and bigamy;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>The woman who was his sweetheart while he was a cadet at West Point \u2014 and then his wife and mother to his two children \u2014 said she was sure her husband was unfaithful but had no clue he had wed his alleged mistress.<\/p>\n<p>Kristina Johnson, 47, said she was shocked to learn about the second marriage, finding out only after being denied Tricare health coverage. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>A Flathead County, Mont., official confirmed to Army Times that Col. Johnson married a woman named Haveen All Adin Al Atar on Nov. 9, 2011, by double proxy, meaning neither party was present. Montana is the only state that allows double proxy marriages.<\/p>\n<p>Army Times has been able to identify \u2014 through several sources \u2014 that Al Atar is the daughter of Col. Johnson\u2019s cultural adviser in Iraq. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>So, then he presented the Army with false divorce documents to get the mother of his children removed from Tricare, and also traveled with his second wife for fun and frolic at the government&#8217;s (your) expense.<\/p>\n<p>27 counts of malfeasance;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u2022 Four violations of Article 92, or failure to obey orders.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Four violations of Article 107, or making false official statements.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 One violation of Article 123, or forgery.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Eight violations of Article 132, or fraud against the United States.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Six violations of Article 133, or conduct unbecoming an officer.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 Four violations of Article 134, a general article, which in this case covers the alleged bigamy and adultery, according to an Army source.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>What a numbnuts. Throw everything away, affect the general morale and discipline of the entire Army for some strange. Good move, Colonel. Was there something in the water of that year group? O-6s are falling left and right through out the services. Well, mostly Army and Navy. You almost expect for the lower enlisted, the E-4 mafia, to try to get away with this shit, but, damn, a colonel?<\/p>\n<p>But I guess there&#8217;s a lesson to be learned here &#8211; never leave an ex-wife anything they can use against you cuz they will.
