Pentagon launches full command investigation into Sen. Mark Kelly over ‘serious misconduct’ allegations
Arizona senator faces full Command Investigation over video calling on service members to ‘refuse illegal orders’
By Michael Sinkewicz
The Office of the Secretary of War on Monday escalated its preliminary review of Sen. Mark Kelly, D-Ariz., to a full command investigation, according to a report.
The investigation into Kelly for “serious allegations of misconduct” has intensified, according to a Pentagon official, first reported by Punchbowl News, with a new probe in conjunction with the Department of War’s Office of the General Counsel.
The department previously announced it had launched a formal review into allegations of misconduct against Kelly over a video calling on service members to “refuse illegal orders.”
A War Department official confirmed to Fox News Digital that the Office of the Secretary of War is “escalating the preliminary review of Captain Mark Kelly, USN (Ret.), to an official Command Investigation.”
“Retired Captain Kelly is currently under investigation for serious allegations of misconduct,” the official said. “Further official comments will be limited to preserve the integrity of the proceedings.”
A permanent E-3 once told me the secret to survive in the Navy was to never be first, never be last and never volunteer yourself. In other words, don’t be high-viz and attract attention. Seems this bit of deck plate wisdom was never disseminated to the Officer Corps, as Kelly has displayed. He is deep in the Find Out part after publicly fornicating fido with his pals, who are now conspicuously silent and staying far far away from the festivities.
Stay tuned.
