    Vindman should have been hanged from a lamppost in the Pentagon parking lot.

    It is more likely Vindman did not appreciate his return to the real Army after ending his tour at the NCS and is just $#@!ing about that.
    THIS IS REPREHENSIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I AM OUTRAGED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If one is a LTC, a successful battalion command is a stepping stone to promotion to Col.
