C.J. Chivers retweeted this and I value his infrequent recommends, especially anything to do with war:

“Nine members of his platoon testified against him at his trial. Together, they described a man who arrived in Afghanistan determined to get his hands bloody... not a single soldier from Lorance’s platoon testified on his behalf.” https://t.co/TflS7ixmxJ

The Navy was planning to kick Chief Gallagher out of the SEALs last week. Instead it has to give him back his rank. https://t.co/TDUoCYK1u9

This reply to the above was interesting:

...just as Putin wanted it to be. So much for all that “MAGA” bull$hit!

Someone noted referring to the guy by his pay grade rather than his rank is throwing major military shade. He'll get his slot back, but he's done.
