    Indeed.

    I had weeks of classroom lessons on the UCMJ and chain of command was huge.

    The general has admitted the calls, two of them, try to keep up.

    Why did you believe Woodward's other book but not this one?

    Get a grip.

    Yes, but the calls were not anything that was unusual for a General in Milley's position. He did nothing wrong.

    He informed the Chinese that we would tell them BEFORE we start bombing.

    That is not his decision to make. Do you think President Trump would have approved that decision. Milley jumped the chain of command.

    Either up your game or I will stop posting to you.

    Good grief.

    Makes me wonder what fourth tier law school let him in and let him graduate.

    LOL. And yet you just told me that the Sec of Defense is not in the chain of command? How badly did you flunk the class?

    No, sonny, I did not say that.

    "Trump acting Defense Secretary Miller says he 'did not' authorize Milley China calls, says he should resign
    Christopher Miller called the reported calls an 'unprecedented act of insubordination"

    The chain of command was Acting Sec. Miller and President Trump.

    Milley jumped both of them.

    Wow. Do you have as hard a time telling what day of the week it is as you do telling what which month is October?
