Timothy McVeigh Receives
Highest Enlisted Rank After Court Fight
The Navy’s Timothy R. McVeigh,
who recently won a court battle that frustrates the illegal sex-snooping
of shameless military voyeurs, has been placed on a list of servicemen
selected for the Navy’s highest enlisted rank. |
McVeigh has been chosen for
E-9, or master chief petty officer, for the current fiscal year, according
to anonymous reports. Such recognition is given to only 15 percent
of military personnel eligible for advancement.
What is significant about
these facts is that it has been McVeigh who has made shameless suckers
out of the Navy’s snoopers.
Though his sexual orientation
is officially unknown, McVeigh has thus far fought valiantly while Navy
“intelligence” has attempted to push him up against a wall, claiming that
he is gay and that they have a right to dismiss him. The Senior Chief Petty
Officer was a submarine chief who returned to his Honolulu port to discover
he was under investigation as a result of an unwarranted AOL release of
his privately held online profile.
This America Online profile,
however, gave no indication of who he really was or where he worked. Thus,
McVeigh, who should have been protected by AOL, turned the tables on the
Navy and charged investigators with both ignoring and violating their own
part of the infamous “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, Don’t Pursue” policy
by vigorously pursuing him. U.S. District Judge Stanley Sporkin agreed
with McVeigh and ruled in his favor last January.
The Judge cited Navy snoops
for their violation of the 1986 Electronics Communications Privacy Act
by seeking information about McVeigh from AOL and violating confidential
materials without a required warrant.
 The
Armed Forces investigators, in fact, had picked on a 36-year old man whose
stellar 18-year career they’d hoped to end, expecting no struggle from
someone they believed to be a mere “fag” and who’d probably, they hoped,
whimper and resign.
After his win in court, McVeigh
was sent by the Navy first to perform land-bound trash gathering duties
and then to base library duties. In March Judge Sporkin ordered Navy commanders
to reinstate McVeigh in his position as a nuclear attack submarine chief.
Judge Sporkin set June 1
as a date by which the Navy should comply with his orders. By granting
the embattled sailor a promotion, investigative Navy personnel would
seem to be backtracking, trying to downplay their illegal activities while
obeying court orders.
