Over the weekend our Managing Editor, Jennifer Van Laar, broke the story of a huge scandal by reporting on the 2-ton war trophy Major General Christopher Donahue placed in the last C-17 out of Kabul. Even a C-17 has weight and cargo limits, so the war trophy reportedly displaced up to 50 people – human beings who were told/ordered to exit the aircraft so the Hilux and its accessory, a Russian anti-aircraft gun, could be loaded.

Now that the story has broken all hell has broken loose to find Jennifer’s source or sources. The Pentagon is embarrassed not because one of its Major Generals displaced human beings for a war trophy, but rather because the Army got caught doing it.
