Marine Lt. Col Stu Scheller became famous for demanding top brass be held accountable for the SNAFUs leading to the deaths of 13 service members during the withdrawal from Afghanistan.
He was court martialed and forced to resign from the Corps due to his demand for holding senior officers accountable for mistakes such as not keeping Bagram Airbase operational.
He has now been selected to serve under Sec. Def. Hegseth as a Senior Advisor to DOD for Personnel and Readiness.

This is outstanding. Too bad Milley still isn’t there so he could rub his face in it…no I take that back, it’s still good that Milley is gone in disgrace.
Yeah boyee!!
Big time WINNING!
Good!
The way we left Afghanistan was a shameful and completely avoidable disaster.
Did he not retire? I can’t remember. But good on his appointment.
He needs to go on a detailed inspection tour at the base where the Marine Corps arrested and imprisoned him.
Well rktman, if you would read past the header your memory would have been jogged. DOH!
BOOM!
Best chuckle I have had all day.
He's the one I'm most worried about, and probably the one most at risk of not getting confirmed.
The Left has, for the past 16 years, embarked on a successful campaign to turn the U.S. Military from a mostly conservative force of warfighters into an emasculated social justice experiment.
Hegseth promises to undo all of this and the Left isn't going to let this happen without putting up a fight.
Good for him!
“The way we left Afghanistan was a shameful and completely avoidable disaster.”
It could have been much worse, but the Taliban let us go.
“It could have been much worse, but the Taliban let us go.”
Guess you should advise on all future extractions,
LOSER
Have you heard Tuesday’s news?
Hegseth’s former sister-in-law came out with “new” allegations, claiming he made her sister feel “unsafe.”
I wonder who got to her.
Never mind....thankfully, it was a hoax, designed to try and undermine Pete Hegseth.
“Guess you should advise on all future extractions,
LOSER”
What stupid statement. The Taliban had us by the short hairs. Biden put our guys in a potential trap. There was only one runway at the Kabul airport. The Taliban could have easily closed it, trapping our troops with no way to get out or resupply. It could have been another Dien Bien Phu.
He was cashiered. “In disgrace” at the time.
Scheller should still be able to ask questions of the higher ups still in service.
“..could have been another Dien Bien Phu.”
As I said: LOSER
