DENVER - The Air Force is reviewing the conduct of the No. 2 officer at the Air Force Academy, a born-again Christian who's been criticized for promoting his religion inappropriately in memos and speeches, The Associated Press has learned.


In a letter dated June 7, acting Air Force Secretary Michael Dominguez told a member of Congress the Air Force inspector general is looking into "allegations of improper conduct" against Brig. Gen. John Weida, the academy commandant.

Dominguez said the review is separate from an investigation by the Pentagon's inspector general into whether an academy chaplain was transferred early for suggesting evangelical Christians wield too much power at the school.

The letter was written to Rep. Lois Capps (news, bio, voting record), a California Democrat who along with 46 others in Congress signed a letter demanding quick action at the academy. She shared the letter with the AP. It does not include details of the investigation, including Weida's conduct.

I remember AF types talking about an island far off the coast of Alaska that was male only no families. The AF sent it's bad boys there.

Sounds like this Weida needs to be sent to one of these places.....
