    Little Red Folder

    Somewhere in the offices of Col. Boylon, there is someone who got stuck with investigating this. They were most likely appointed to this task by Gen. Petraeus himself. They are in the process of conducting interviews and documenting everything very carefully in a little red folder. This folder will then be shuffled under the rug somewhere and Boylon will get his Star in a few years anyway...

    Or maybe this will get really big and cost him the Star (of the rank of General Officer) he has been working for his whole life.

    I am hoping for the latter, but I am not too hopeful.
