I recently was separated from the air Force after five years of service a also a voluntary separation because i still had two years left. There Are a lot of reasons Why i chose to leave the air Force the main one being that if someone of higher rank does not care for you he she can make your work life along with your personal life a living hell. I have three years College education and am almost finished with my Bachelor s degree not to mention in a a hard worker. I choose to take that to a place where it will account for something and i wont be judged by the number of stripes on my Arm or by slanderous gossip about my personal life. No one with a lot on the Ball wants to be supervised or work under someone who has an attitude or personal problem with their subordinate or is using rank to justify themselves. Sorry air Force but this was your loss a Lisa Schmiehausen Klein Brogl Belgium a costly article 15 a this letter is in response to the master sergeant who wrote in to say that the senior airman got what he deserved. Well if you had read the article fully then you would have read that if he had not been Given that article 15, he would have been Back on time. Instead the air Force lost $1,050 by giving someone an article 15. They could have at least waited  he went Back to his original unit. With the . Deficit As High As it is done to you think the air Force could have waited this one out now we taxpayers will have to pay for that and All the other senseless articles 15 the armed forces gives out. Of master sergeant Haven to you Ever overslept i la bet you have. A Crystal Lee Niernberg Germany sealed through the assistance of a defense counsel. Lastly an Appeal to the conscience of a Quality Soldier is not a very pragmatic notion in the life of a defense counsel d. Who is obligated to aggressively protect one time or another oppressed every two groups of Whites. There is not a continent that you can visit today and not see victims of eurocentrism. Collective White society has practice genocide polluted the planet and at his client from any and All Adverse consequences the government might seek to impose. But is it too archaic an idea to suggest that some soldiers who have transgressed the Law who feel remorse and who wish to confess might legit race on Earth. The letter writer was Correct when he stated that a no group has a monopoly on Good or evil a but when 8 percent of the world s population causes or contributes to what is probably 70 or 80 percent of the worlds Macly do so without first having the collective problems you have to try Benefit of a Legal analysis As to their hard to View White society in any Way chances of beating the rap or engaging in tortured pretrial Maneu vers before cutting a Deal the mediation of counsel for a criminal suspect in dealing with police authorities is a sacred Protection afforded by the Bill of rights.

My letter is in response to a women in combat  part of our Mission for this operation is to carry a single Channel satellite radio with All operating equipment in a advice went too far the advice Given soldiers by or. Mcneil of the civilian bar to always assert their right to counsel when questioned As a suspect has a pragmatic ring of truth to it. A confession or material admission against interest will normally a Ioviti any Hope of an acquittal at court martial. There is also a declining incentive on the part of a Soldier to invest in a civilian lawyer for plea bargaining purposes Only. My Issue with or. Mcneil is the excess of his advice. He Youil apply it at All times under All circumstances even when the Soldier is truly innocent and has the capacity to understand the accusation and address any suspicions about his possible involvement. Surely not All inquiries for information under these circumstances especially when minor infractions Are involved require that the Soldier must first Retreat into the protective enclave of a defense counsel s office in order for Justice to be served. It is a tragic indictment of the military Community if the truly innocent Soldier must always fear compromising himself by providing those in authority with his explanation. It implies that cos commanders and military police Are consistently Blind to the Virtues of objectivity and fairness and will torture and twist the facts Given them by a Soldier to fit some preconceived notion of what happened. If the Chain of command has earned the Trust of the Soldier Over the Long run. He or she ought not to Tecl that the truth of their position can Only be re that is not negative. American history is basically a full school year s Worth of european Ameri can recognition. If you were to ask the average child in school to name three famous african americans from history whose names Arentt Martin Luther King jr., Malcolm x or Jesse Jackson Odds Are you  come up with even two. How Many of you know who Charles Drew Jan Matzeliger Matthew Hinson Lewis Lattimore or Garrett Morgan Are without looking up their names to think that the creation of new technology or new ways of thinking is a a Good a is relative to the beholder. To think that the whole world recognizes european civilization As the a Best on Earth a is both pompous and insulting to those who choose not to follow the example of the european. In order for the world to become truly multicultural All humanity must be truthful first to itself and then to others. To sugarcoat history is to invite a Licking. A airman 1st class Phillip a. Crowson Torrejon a Spain Sanctity of human life the Constitution is intended to protect the people from government excesses not the other Way around. An invocation during a ceremony is no More an endorsement of a particular religion a the Issue behind the separation of Church and state a than bus camouflage fatigues Are a fashion statement. I done to subscribe to a particular religion but 1 believe the absence of religion is a mistake. When belief in the Sanctity of human life a the basis of religion a is removed from society the Large Rucksack of. There have been problems with our conscience of society Dies. And the mor female soldiers not being Able to carry a Santa values of the people die along this Type of weight. One female Soldier wjt1 removed a portion of the batteries from her Rucksack to lighten the weight. If this Soldier Ever encountered a situation that required around the clock use of her radio she would be in a world of Hurt. My Point is that if a female Soldier can meet the standards for a combat role then she should have the right to choose that role. However if standards have to be lowered or Steps be taken to accommodate a female Soldier in any role the army a Mission readiness May not be what it should be. A spec.

Africans were not born slaves they were born humans who were enslaved by europeans seeking profit.
