DAYUM!

Does he have an aide to wheelbarrow his huge brass balls around? FOUR "V" devices

Let's hope he can make some positive changes to the world of non-binary kitty cats, unicorns and rainbow butterflies

With Milley up there...yeah right..good luck..

The CSM's probably a good man, however he's gonna have to carry the line...or he won't last long..

I know of an SF CSM that turned down that job, because of the administration that was in at the time..

I've known him for almost 20 years. I can tell you, he doesn't need an aide to wheelbarrow his brass balls around and if he had one, he's not the type to let an aide handle his balls anyway. He's most certainly earned more than the four "V" devices that he has been awarded - and if there is an SF CSM that can navigate the pentagons wildly erratic shifting tide, it would be him.

Just like everyone else, there are probably a few folks out there that don't like him and there are folks out there that think he can do no wrong. He's as human as the rest of us but even on his very WORST day, when compared against the clown he will be replacing - CSM Weimer will still stand head and shoulders above Grinston on his very best day.


...just my two cents

That's very good. Glad someone knows him and can vouch. I stated somewhere, SF are our own worse critics, not everybody's usually happy. As they say, "It's lonely at the top"..I wish the good CSM well.

I have hope that his asymmetric conflict resolution skills will be valuable…
