zach braff Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Cute how they make it seem like a disgrace to retire as a four star general. Oh no! I wasn't successful, this scandal brought me down and I only achieved the HIGHEST RANK possible in the Air Force! zb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't successful, this scandal brought me down and I only achieved the HIGHEST RANK possible in the Air Force! zb His retirement pay will still be over 6 times my current base pay. I am sure he will also have some consultant job making a few hundred thousand dollars a year on top of that. I don't know how he is going to rebound from this.

M2 Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Ya gotta admit, it is an amusing read but no real foundation in reality. I guess they've never considered the influence retired four stars have on the active duty... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyguy2181 Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 The AF is closing the investigation on her, concluding that she was kidnapped. "The Air Force has confirmed that a major who went missing in Kyrgyzstan six years ago was kidnapped, debunking an online smear campaign that claimed she went AWOL." http://www.airforcetimes.com/news/2012/03/air-force-confirms-metzger-kidnapped-2006-031912/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brickhistory Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Well, that's it then. Big Blue has never, ever closed the door on any inconvenient facts or cases in the past. Curious how she fought her captors, stabbing one according to this rag, and I don't see any medals for valor. Funny that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Butters Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 "Metzger was able to escape by stabbing one of her captors with a stick she had sharpened into a shank and then locking him in the room where she was held." Looks like they skipped the portion of her story where she said she was giving him a BJ then stabed him with her dick. AF Times can't get anything right. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ram Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I don't understand the middle ground. Either her story is true, or it's a lie. That means she either merits a handful of medals for valor, or a dishonorable discharge. The 'tweener doesn't make any sense to me, I guess.

Steve Davies Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Anyone got a link to the report that AirForceTimes quotes? Can't see it on af.mil, and a keyword search there turns up nothing of interest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoo Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 (edited) Spoo, in case you were wondering your answer to this question is no. Rog, thanks. Although, I am impressed that he was on the job in under an hour. He was also able to evaluate my priorities based on a single sarcastic post. Bravo. My message is that your priorities are badly misplaced. Edited March 20, 2012 by Spoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 (INSIDER) -- Metzger claimed one of her abductors was a young male. She claimed she waited until he came in to give her some food, and at that time she made a motion as if she wanted to have sex with him. She says she'd found a stick somewhere, had sharpened it, and stabbed him in the abdomen as she was giving him oral sex. That supposedly slowed the guard down enough for her to run away - thirty miles - until she knocked on the door of the home in Kant. Damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am no MacGyver, but what tools was she supplied with to sharpen a stick to that degree? I feel like it would take a lot of force to penetrate all the layers of skin and muscle with a stick (sts). Unless you are treated like a king by captors (given adequate food, sleep, and not beaten), how would you ever have the strength to do that? This sounds like a scene out of one of those Angelina Jolie super secret agent movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
