FWIW . . . In the military, you only write a letter (document) to CYA. Yep, letter or email to put on record. He should have sent an internal email up his chain of command and cc'd entire chain of command. Leaking to public was not wise. I think it was leaked by someone up his chain of command that had it in for him. You would be surprised how much jealousy and backbiting goes on within the upper ranks. Worse than a pack of old biddies and dowagers.
"All that the South has ever desired was that the Union, as established by our forefathers, should be preserved, and that the government, as originally organized, should be administered in purity and truth." – Robert E. Lee
