Air Force General Resigns over Racial Comment
May 6, 2015
WHILE presiding over a disciplinary hearing, Maj. Gen. Michael A. Keltz, a decorated combat pilot, described the appearance of an accused officer in a photo as “drunker than 10,000 Indians.”
“The audience, which apparently included members of Native American descent, was taken aback,” [Tony] Carr wrote in [his] blog. ”Keltz reportedly continued the commentary a little longer, at one point saying the officer looked ‘drunker than 10,000 sailors.’”
He could have said “drunker than 10,000 Irish,” and his 34-year-career might not have ended so soon.
