For the last 15 years I was on various Headquarters staffs, including 2 tours at Pentagon (I have a somewhat unique skill set that they needed at the time). anyway, I dealt a lot with Generals, and saw a lot as well. If I as a Major or Lt Col had pulled some of these stunts (using government funds inappropriately, adultery, & security violations (at least one of which lead to US military members getting killed or injured, etc), I would have been at the least posted to some undesirable, remote location, or, more likely court-martialed (and rightly so!). But, the Generals just could not bring themselves to discipline each other. A few of the incidents did make it into the news, and still the worst that came of it would be a reprimand. DCI is acting the same way. What will it take to get their attention? a huge lawsuit going after them or putting a corps out of business 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeffmolnar Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Honestly, DCI should have way more power than they currently do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggested something similar to this back in the spring, but here goes again: DCI needs to put policies on inappropriate relationships, no staff with history of sexual abuse, as well as spell out precisely what is required from a health & safety standpoint into the official DCI rulebook. Probably in the same section as the age requirements. And lay out penalties, to include immediate disqualification for current season & perhaps the following season for violations. If a Corps self-reports (like SCV in 89 w/r/t overage members), and takes swift and bold action to address the problem, then some sort of lesser penalty. Any whiff of stonewalling or a coverup leads to immediate disqualification. People will say 'its not fair for the kids'. No it is not. Life is not fair. If they want to blame someone, have them look at their Corps leadership. Zero tolerance. Zero.
