As soon as the words "as long as I am commander of the base" left her computer terminal her fate was sealed.
FAFO.

@UncleCharlie2.0

Imagine sending out a mass email complaining about your boss, and not knowing how it would go.

@Jon_Flys_RC

The word “fired” needs to stop being used to describe issues with military personnel. You are not fired in the military you a relieved of command. They are still in the military until administratively separated, dishonorably discharged or choose to retire after being given a “punishment” job they do not want.

@nekk-ra7080

You can absolutely despise your boss, but don't be dumb enough to put it in writing for all to see.

@danlc45

If ever you want to be relieved of command, this is a fine way to accomplish it.

@dogzebra2708

This shouldn't surprise anyone.  Insubordination is grounds for dismissal every military that has ever existed. Being fired amounts to a slap on the wrist, so she got off easy for it.

@redsoxfan0923

This is how you Tell everyone you don't want a promotion to Brigadier General.

@Timothy-ns4qn

Anyone who has ever served knows better than to do what she did.

@jakeviolet2195

When you're in the military, you don't get to criticise your superiors. At least not publically! You say yes sir, right away sir, and save your grumbling for your friends.

@b-radsadventures6846

When you're part of a machine, you can't march in your own direction.

@WAFB-w1s

Sometimes people become "too big for their britches" she essentially sabotaged her career & credibility in one single swoop, this is why you NEVER THINK WITH YOUR EMOTIONS.

@lyntwo

She served as a commissioned office in the Armed Forces of the United States. Public disagreement with national policy while acting as a commissioned officer is a reason for the Executive Branch to lose confidence
in that Officer's ability to lead and so request resignation.

@user-wq6zq1pr8g

That Colonel must be out of her mind for doing that. That s not an opinion or stance that a military member even allows themselves to entertain, much less express.

@tetelestai5736

These people can’t help themselves

@jeffralston8946

Doesn't matter what you think of it, as a military officer it is your duty to show respect to National Command Authority

@JimHill-jd5qf

Shrewd way to get out of her Greenland command.

@igrowdragonfruits

If you’re an active duty military, you need to put politics to the side. Talking negative to the commander in chief 2nd in command is worst then talking negative to a 4-star general.

@holly_kay5570

Any military commander knows better! You’re fired!!!

@kitfisto1827

The same outcome in the private sector. Insubordination and showing up your bosses will get you fired every time. Not a very smart woman.

@garyminser2746

Doing what she did was tantamount to canceling her career. Any soldier knows you don't talk bad about the leader especially your commander in chief.
