Every branch of the US Military has an IG, JAG, social actions office as well as an equal opportunity and treatment office. Above all…there is the golden rule:
“Discrimination against anyone’s color, race, sex or RELIGION will NOT be tolerated”!
Do these folks still have their jobs? Probably. Why haven’t they done anything to help this soldier out? Well, the most obvious reason is those agencies work for the Commander of the installation and if he/she doesn’t want them to weight-in, then there’s not much that can be done through Military channels then. However, this young man has a heck of a discrimination law suit that’s for sure.
Sec Def should be firing a lot more Generals for this and he shouldn’t stop there. Everyone in this soldiers chain of command should get the boot…and I don’t mean retirements or anyone getting severance pay either. Just pack’em up and show them the gate.
The US Military has one mission and that’s to defend this country against all enemies, foreign and domestic. If this soldier is an American soldier then he is sworn to do just that. If he can’t, show him the door too, but if he can, everyone else check your bias and discrimination’s at the door!
