Where can we reach CM?

To clarify: in recent weeks I monitored Q. It is someone who does know SOME inside stuff, but it is garbled. Like it comes from boyfriend of a gal who works as assistant to a staffer 1 floor away from POTUS. So it is not that the FACTS are all false, but the CONFIDENCE is false.

Air Force Demotes Former General as IG Report Reveals Details of Illicit Affair
The former general in charge of U.S. Air Force Warfare Center removed from command due to an alleged unprofessional relationship was demoted to colonel following an investigation into his behavior, according to an Air Force Inspector General report released Friday.
Maj. Gen Peter Gersten, head of the Warfare Center at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, retired as a colonel effective Jan. 1, spokeswoman Ann Stefanek told Military.com.
Gersten, she said, received what's known as an Article 15, the highest form of nonjudicial punishment.
Before an officer retires, he or she receives a Grade Determination Review Board which determines the "highest grade in which a [service member] served satisfactorily," according to the Defense Department.
"As a result of this investigation, [the board] determined he could retire at the grade of colonel," Stefanek said in a phone call.
According to the redacted report, provided to Military.com, an investigation was launched following a complaint against Gersten alleging the former general had engaged in an adulterous relationship, a violation under the Uniform Code of Military Justice.
The Air Force did not disclose the complainant, or the individual Gersten was alleged to have the relationship with. The Air Force only identified the woman as a subordinate member on his personal staff, with whom he had sexual intercourse between July 2018 until he was relieved of command in June 2019.
Gersten, an F-16 Fighting Falcon pilot, took command of the center in July 2017. A command pilot with more than 2,800 total flying hours, Gersten has flown over Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan and Bosnia. He has also flown the MQ-1 Predator, MQ-9 Reaper and RQ-170 Sentinel drones and the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, according to his official biography.
The complainant additionally alleged Gersten "had a reputation for engaging in inappropriate personal relationships with multiple women for the past ten years," a violation which falls under the UCMJ's prohibition on "Conduct unbecoming an officer and gentleman."
The complaint was first made to the Air Force Office of Special Investigations, then transferred to Air Force Inspector General Lt. Gen Sami Said for action. Witness interviews began in June 2019, the report says.
Gersten declined to be interviewed for the investigation.
Around Nellis, Gersten's marriage was known to be "a touchy subject," according to one witness interviewed for the report. The service interviewed 24 witnesses; none were publicly identified.

Nearly 175,000 military retirees, family members may soon have no Tricare Select coverage
By law, in order to continue coverage under Tricare Select, retiree sponsors were required to start paying new monthly enrollment fees as of Jan. 1, and they were required to set up a payment plan by Dec. 31 by allotment, bank account or credit card.
About 20 percent of this population, or 174,754 out of 872,886 beneficiaries, haven’t taken action to set up their payments, or to actively opt out, according to data provided by the Defense Health Agency. Payments haven’t yet been set up for 278,497 beneficiaries; but of those, 103,743 have actively opted out of setting up payments, thus effectively discontinuing coverage. Those beneficiary numbers include the retiree sponsor as well the retiree’s eligible family members enrolled in Tricare Select.
Anyone who is dropped from Tricare Select will have access to direct medical care only at a military treatment facility, and only if space if available. Claims for medical treatment after Dec. 31 will be denied, but coverage can be reinstated within 180 days if back enrollment fees are paid.
At the end of January, regional Tricare contractors will start sending out letters to these beneficiaries notifying them about their disenrollment, according to DHA spokesman Peter Graves. He said health officials expect “some number of those eligible” to request reinstatement. Contractors have also started sending emails to those who haven’t yet paid, he said.
“Overall, the numbers are very concerning, but we’re really not surprised,” because of traditional difficulties in communicating with beneficiaries, said Karen Ruedisueli, director of health affairs for the Military Officers Association, .
She said she was concerned that too many beneficiaries won’t find out their coverage has been dropped until their medical provider tells them when they go to seek care.
The enrollment fees are:
*for individuals: $12.50 per month or $150 a year
*for families: $25 per month or $300 per year
This doesn’t affect retirees who are in Tricare for Life, Tricare Prime, or those using a premium-based plan. Nor does it affect active duty families on Tricare Select, survivors of deceased active duty members, or medical retired retirees and family members.
Overall, payments had been set up for 68 percent of affected beneficiaries by the end of December, according to information provided by the Defense Health Agency.
But that varies by region. The overseas region has the lowest percentage of those who have set up payments, at 45 percent. In the Tricare East region, payments have been set up for 72 percent of enrolled beneficiaries. In Tricare West, payments have been set up for 64 percent of beneficiaries.
In 2021, for the first time, retirees and family members enrolled in Tricare Select, must pay enrollment fees in order to continue their coverage. If you haven’t responded to the Defense Department’s clarion call to contact your Tricare regional contractor to set up a payment process, you lost coverage as of Jan. 1, and you’ll soon find your health care claims are denied.
