How ‘Rear Adm. Jack Meehoff’ fooled a bunch of real retired generals and admirals
In a commentary for Defense One, retired Air Force Brig. Gen. Paula G. Thornhill wrote that the opinions expressed by the retired leaders who signed the Flag Officers 4 America Letter do not deserve any sort of special consideration just because of the signatories’ former ranks.
“It’s a small step, but one place to start is give an ‘F’ to a poorly written missive, supported by a self-selected group of retired white men, posted on a website that implies, somehow, these retirees are uniquely ‘for America,’” wrote Thornhill, associate director of the Strategic Studies program at Johns Hopkins SAIS. “This letter demonstrates just how unworthy they are of the public voice they tried to claim as flag officer retirees.”
