"What has played out here is really abuse of command discretion."

"If they don't like that criteria, we can find other officers that want to have an Army or armed services that is respected."

"They should not have discretion when it comes to abusing your spouse or your children."

"Until we have that higher level command and we hold a commander accountable for their career for failing to manage their forces, we are never going to get there."
