I don't know exactly what they will charge him with, but 'conduct unbecoming an officer' was the most likely charge. Also, due to the fact that Rapone is being dismissed from the service due to his own actions the Army is going to hit him with the bill for his entire USMA education. I could be wrong, but my friends said this is being taken very seriously and isn't being white washed.


I hope this is true! I have searched every other day for updates and the Army is being officially completely mum about it. There are no stories or updates available other than 'the investigation is ongoing'.

I can roger that. But the fact that so many witnessed and no one busted a single knuckle is very depressing on its own.

Code Red, is that what we used to call a blanket party?

I assume so, and that is exactly what he needs, on his way out of the army with less than an honorable discharge.

I have read many ridiculous statements here over the years, but this is Grand Champion Hall of Fame material. They should commit a felony aggravated assault (or worse) offense to show their displeasure at someone’s idiotic political and social views—? I realize that most comments like this are nothing more than gaseous emissions from behind the safety of a computer screen, but there are limits to what deserve even the venue to express them.

Did anyone happened to read a sworn statement about Raspone from a Lt Coronel when he was in West Point?

As much as we may like the idea of a blanket party, it's not reasonable to expect the cadets to fix a behavior problem that USMA Staff is allowing to continue and possibly encouraging.

Whoa, someone didn't get their fiber RDA.
Seems militaries the world over think extrajudicial discipline and punishment are valuable tools. Over the top? Absolutely.
But given the magnitude of national and international embarrassment for such a revered and respected institution, not by much.

If a cadet (or several) had 'taken matters into their own hands' and handed out the kind of butt-whooping some here call for, those cadets would have been charged with assault and expelled.

This isn't 1950 any more.

I’ll take your word that such things can motivate people to forcefully express strong opinions. That has never been true of me, but evidently you have more experience about the matter, so I won’t argue that claim.

No, what motivated me to express myself on this rare occasion was my sense of personal honor and my profound respect for the Rule of Law, and the standards and traditions of the American armed forces—the US Military Academy’s in particular. USMA cadets are training to become the future leaders of the US Army, not highly paid athletic thugs. Anyone who believes USMA cadets should ignore the orders they took an oath to obey (including those in the UCMJ) and act like thugs, and that that behavior would be a benefit in their future careers or to the armed forces of this country is … sadly misguided. Frown

I absolutely respect what you're saying. But 200 yrs of being the tip of the spear of world order and good, deserve a reaction. Not blind eyeing it with their dicks in hand. This is bigger than a few cadets and 4 yrs at West Point. A gang takedown, ripping of rank, snapping of saber and destruction of that disgusting shirt and hat would made then famous for a long time. No thugs needed and no blunt force injuries recorded. Hindsight is a wonder, ain't it.

Under the CIC at that time any cadet who partook in such an activity would've been prosecuted to the fullest extent for infringing on Rapones liberties to express himself and be a free thinker, his statements in his hat and shirt went with the Obama Agenda, this is one of the many things that BHO did to weaken and try to destroy our military. Imagine if he had say a John Wayne shirt on and death to to the Mujah Hadeen written in his hat,he would've been yanked out of the USMA in the instant the picture was seen, and prosecuted. This is what years of leftist, progressive liberal democrats have done to our nation.

Restored my faith in the system a bit.

Hopefully DOD goes after the cost of the West Point education as well.

Officers can't be given a BCD or worse discharge. They recieve a dismissal letter, which is really just the same thing.
