Probe expands to General Allen... yeesh. What the hell is an "unpaid social liaison?"
Is that like a FRO (Family Readiness Officer) in the Navy and Marine Corps?

Oh man, please no. This is getting ridiculous.

It was already ridiculous, now it's becoming farce. Next it'll turn out one of them drove cross-country in an adult diaper. Or GEN Odierno is on the client list of that Zumba call girl.
I suppose it's good you qualified harmless in quotation marks. There really is no such thing as harmless adultery unless you're in some type of open marriage. A myopic focus on the matter of material/substantive damage to national security is not really warranted. Is it too much to ask our leaders to do the right thing? Even when it's difficult? That's what we're supposed to do.I hope the investigation can say they at least had credible indicators that national security was compromised. And not because of some sick desire to see any of these guys get burned, but because if there isn't, this is all a serious waste of time and resources.
Had an interesting discussion at work on whether or not "harmless" adultery (ie no classified pillowtalk, chain of command issues, compromised job performance, etc) should even be covered by the UCMJ or used against a public official. Purely speculation from what I've seen, but for every guy "caught", there are plenty that do the deed and just never get caught.
Sweet baby Jesus.
