As a fellow veteran I salute his Bravery. As an United States citizen I applaud his Patriotism. As someone who believes in Karma (to a degree) I say, Suck it Chump! to the traitorous swine who made his life hell.

I too hope that he can be placed in the new administration. (provided that's what he wants of course)

With rank restored! Shitgibbon denied him a promotion he was due. I sincerely hope Joe will give it to him.

Same with Andrew McCabe, fired one stinkin' day before pension eligibility. He should be made whole as well! Ditto all the others that Cockwomble used his power to screw over.

Big middle finger to ex-pRes-soon-to-be-convicted-felon Trump and the GOP Senate who let him smear and fire this brave patriot.
