Former Lt. Col. Stuart Scheller
Other from United States
Author of Crisis of Command
Professional Public Speaker
Political Advocate
I resigned from the Marine Corps at the rank of Lieutenant Colonel after witnessing a poorly planned and executed Afghanistan withdrawal. I was thrust into the media when I posted a video on Facebook and LinkedIn from my office as a Battalion Commander. Wearing my uniform, I identified myself in the video with rank and title and then proceeded to criticize the decisions of my senior military and political leaders. A series of escalating events occurred following the video’s release between myself and the Marine Corps, resulting in my imprisonment, court-martial, and resignation.
Americans need courage now more than ever. Americans need to find their voice now more than ever. Currently, I am advocating for courage and leadership across all of America’s key institutions.
