Wouldn't he retire (assuming he is able to finish out 20 years) at the highest rank held during his career – and not necessarily the one he held at the time of retirement?

Does anyone know what a fella needs to do to get "His adjudged sentence was imprisonment for one year, not suspended." tacked onto a sentence? Did he refuse to pay someone off? I would like to know the story behind that – he must have pissed the wrong guy off.

It happened, an Air Force person is finally on this list!

I think you have to petition the Board of Correction of Military Records after you retire at the lower rank.

Figueroa-Bonilla. Those guys with hyphrnated names always go down hard.

Not sure it's corruption- more like institutionalized apathetic incompentence, with occasional forays into corruption.

Hanlon's Razor (though I prefer to attribute it to Robert A. Heinlein) ok…
Heinlein's Razor comes into play here:
"Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity, but don't rule out malice."
Either (malice or incompetence) should be exposed and punished, or dealt with appropriately, as the case may be.
