Why not have an investigation of the “three stooges” in the Alaska National Guard (Palin, Campbell, and Kacass). Our son is a hero and recognized as so by the Canadian government and the Pentagon. He is retiring because he got “cheated out of a promotion” by the stooges because he had integrity. Won't anyone look into the corrupt cronyism that goes on there. I hate injustices and will continue to fight on no matter how long it takes. What a disgrace to the men of the Alaska Guard to have to be led by these cronies who have records of disgrace. However, it has been covered up.

Our Alaska Guardsman son is yet to get justice from the Alaska Guard Generals Campbell and Kacass. As long as there is a cover up it will never happen. It's unfortunate because the military lost a great, courageous, and honorable soldier. Campbell and Kacass keep their cowardly cronies close by because they have no integrity. The Alaska Guardsmen (not the cronies) deserve better but Sarah Palin continues to ignore any pleas for an investigation. She has no honor either.

John, They are good at lies, deception, and cover up. They will compromise their integrity for power. The Alaska Guard has great men in it with exception of the General's cronies and they screw over outstanding officers because they fear they will outshine them. So, therefore, they choose losers as leaders who don't threaten their low intelligence.

I still can't understand how these Generals get away with what they do. I keep reading about this family trying to get justice for their son in the Alaska Guard and yet no one seems to care or is afraid. Isn't this still America? What happened to our freedom to question and investigate decisions. Instead, this General gets another star. Fair? He fits in nicely with the Palin gang.

Obviously, they know the ropes. Yet they will retaliate if a Guardsman speaks out. They have their cronies and do some major kissing up to Sarah Palin.

Too bad we didn't elect Gen. Petraeus President and cut out the middle man. He would have had my vote. Then he could send Generals Campbell and Kacus off to Iraq or Afghanistan since they need the experience. I find it really mind boggling that they command the Alaska Guard and send others off to war but they have never been in “theater.” How did they get promoted–lie, spin, and win.

CNN had reported that Palin had sent the Guard to do some firefighting.

Palin's not the candidate the Republicans are making her out to be.
Nevertheless, doesn't this count as a directive?

The governor has granted him the authority to act on his own in most cases, including life-or-death emergencies — when a quick response is required — and minor day-to-day operations.
