Army won't investigate Vindman over impeachment testimony, top leader says
By Jacqueline Feldscher 2 hrs ago
The Army will not investigate Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman, the former National Security Council staffer who testified in the president’s impeachment investigation, the service’s top civilian said Friday.
Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy made the announcement at an event just days after President Donald Trump said he imagined the military would “take a look at†whether Vindman should face disciplinary action for the “horrible things†he told House investigators about the president’s phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky last July.
Vindman was ousted from his position on the NSC last week after the Senate acquitted Trump. Vindman’s lawyer said the move amounted to retribution.

Not a good day for justice.
I guess it is okay now for a LTC to going on national tv and criticize his CinC without repercussions...
Unless things have changed so much since hubby retired Vindman's career in the Army is essentially over...he will never make full bird.

If Vindman failed to follow orders from his superiors, he's in the wrong. But if he was following orders, he is okay. If the "system" of the NSC orders individuals to listen, find fault, conspire with partisan "whistleblowers," congressionals committee staffs, then NSC system is at fault.
The President should not be subject to this situation.
The conduct of the Presiden't legitimate business, involves treaties, negotiations, deals, and qui pro quo is an entirely correct, legal aspect of that.
