A Marine Corps battalion commander said he was relieved of his duties Friday after he posted a video demanding “accountability” from senior leaders for failures in Afghanistan.

Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller went viral Thursday after he posted a four-minute, 45-second video to Facebook in which he appeared in uniform and ripped into military leadership following the devastating suicide bombing at Kabul airport, which killed 13 US service members and at least 169 Afghans.

He asked questions that need to be answered, but they had to fire him.  He also resigned his commission and is forfeiting his retirement.  He has 17 years in.  This man has stones.  Many people talk the talk.  Few make sacrifices like this to stand on their convictions.  God bless this American patriot.

I’ve read interviews and listened to podcasts with a number of people who have been over there. The common thread is that the leadership was saying one thing in public (mission going great) and another in private (unwinnable).

Yup.   I know a green beret who I was talking to last month said this is exactly what was going on.
