Caughey was the vice commander of the 50th Space Wing at Schriever Air Force Base and the charges date back to events that occurred years ago. <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A 23-year Air Force veteran, Caughey was an up-and-coming space officer whose responsibilities had included running a 22-nation missile defense wargame in 2014 for U.S. Strategic Command. At Schriever, he was the No. 2 officer in the wing, which oversees the military&#8217;s constellation of navigation and communication satellites.<\/p>\n<p>He was also a survivor of the 9\/11 attack on the Pentagon&#8230;.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Need an Army colonel&#8217;s career? Well, there&#8217;s Colonel Christopher Vanek, the former commander of the 75th Ranger Regiment.

Christopher Vanek were outlined in an Army Regulation 15-6 investigation. Army Times obtained the report via the Freedom of Information Act.<\/p>\n<p>Vanek was reprimanded as a result of the investigation. An Army official who spoke on background to Army Times said Vanek received a general officer letter of reprimand, which can often be a career killer.<\/p>\n<p>Vanek relinquished command of the 75th Ranger Regiment, the Army\u2019s elite raid force, in June. He is now the assistant chief of staff for U.S. Africa Command.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There&#8217;s a more in depth description of the behavior that got Colonel Vanek fired at the link. By all accounts, he was a very good combat leader, evidenced by that assignment.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Bobo for the links.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to the Colorado Springs Gazette, Air Force Colonel Eugene Marcus Caughey is facing charges of &hellip; <a title=\"Colonels gone wild\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=63862\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Colonels gone wild<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":63865,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[177],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-63862","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dumbass-bullshit"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63862","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=63862"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/63862\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/63865"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=63862"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=63862"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=63862"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
