The Army is investigating Brig. Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair, who has been reassigned from Afghanistan back to Fort Bragg, officials said Friday.
Earlier this month, Sinclair was removed from his job as the 82nd Airborne Division's deputy commanding general for support in Afghanistan. He had been deputy commander since July 2010.
"This is a criminal investigation," said Ben Abel, a Fort Bragg spokesman.
Sinclair has returned to Fort Bragg for his assignment as special assistant to the commanding general of the 18th Airborne Corps and Fort Bragg, Abel said.

I usually have no sympathy for Flag Officers.

If this is anything except a combat related incident then my track record remains....I'll have no sympathy.

And if it isn't combat related then what the hell could be going on?

One thing is certain.

General Mattis needs to get his house in order.

That combat zone is spiraling out of control.  The attacks on coalition forces by our allies...a withdrawal under fire in the making...a lack of control over the border region between Pakistan and Afghanistan...public support for the war decreasing every day....and now a Flag Officer being removed because of a crimminal investigation.

Kinda makes the days of Marines pissing on the enemy that they JUST PUT A BULLET into seem like the non-issue it really was huh?
