He WAS a a junior officer 4 years ago when the videos were made AND they weren't a big issue back then because he WAS promoted to Captain. The issue today is WHY is it an issue NOW ?? Why is he being tried by the court of public opinion instead kept 'in house' ?
Yes, this screams of a DADT witch hunt.
The admirality is sacrificing this officer to cover their asses for promoting him.
Epic Fail for the Navy.
The Navy is quickly becoming a girl scout troup, NOT the brotherhood that I was once proud to be a member of.
