This is terrible. I mean just the worst thing. This Lt.Col. spoke out about the disaster that was the recent evacuation of Afganistan. Willing to take responsibility himself, he called out the superiors who were not and called into question their inability to use the weight of their seniority to demand Bagram airbase be kept in use until all Americans and allies were flown out to safety.

When he refused he was placed in Jail. The following is annexcerpt from a British newspaper:
"Scheller said that 'excusing the action of service members because of "PTSD" does more damage to service members than any trauma in combat' and that he is stronger because of his involvement in 'very traumatic situations.'

It came after 13 U.S. service members, including 11 Marines, were killed along with more than 90 Afghans after at least one suicide bomber attacked the Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul. "
