Kim David has been refusing to issue DD214s to service members whose records do not share her military service values, Duffel Blog has learned.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; -webkit-hyphens: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">“It wasn’t a spur of the moment decision,” said David. “It was thought out, and I consulted the army values, all seven of them, before taking these actions.”</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; -webkit-hyphens: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Spc. David’s actions — or lack thereof — have stirred controversy across the installation, drawing sharp criticism from those who feel the 19-year-old clerk is obligated to perform her duties as assigned regardless of her beliefs, while others complain she should not be evaluating others’ service after she was caught using her Government Travel Card to buy Joel Osteen DVDs.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; -webkit-hyphens: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Some soldiers have come to her defense, seeing her stance as bravery in the face of the deteriorating power of <a href="http://shop.duffelblog.com/collections/shirts/products/the-e-4-mafia-shirt" target="_blank" style="box-sizing: border-box; text-decoration: none;">the E-4 mafia.</a></span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; -webkit-hyphens: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">“David doesn’t have to process anyone’s DD214 that doesn’t embody the army values like we do,” said Spc. Trevor Koch, a medic and vocal supporter of David’s growing contingent. “Just the other day, I did a multi-source feedback on one of the lieutenants in the unit. Looked like everyone said he was a shit-bird. That’s why I’m not going to update his vaccinations properly in MEDPROs.”</span></p><div class="text_exposed_show" style="box-sizing: border-box;"><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; -webkit-hyphens: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Spc. John David Riley, the first soldier David refused to process a DD214 for, did nothing above standard for the army and deserved to continue serving until he distinguished himself, said David, when called before a judge at her Court Martial.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; -webkit-hyphens: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Riley is still waiting on a folding chair assuming that any minute now his DD214 will be complete and could not be reached for comment.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; -webkit-hyphens: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">David, a Rowan County, Ky. native, testified that she joined the army to be a cook and was forced into the administration position. She asserted she never would have volunteered for a position where she would be forced to provide services to soldiers who have not served up to her standards.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; -webkit-hyphens: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">David herself has previously collected a string of Article 15’s for public indecency, dereliction of duty, and misappropriation of government equipment in addition to the investigation into her Government Travel Card Charges.</span></p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px 0px 1em; -webkit-hyphens: auto;"><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">“I’ve made mistakes,” said David. “I know I have. But I’m only accountable to the army. I can’t be fired. No one else on this post knows how to generate a DD214.”</span></p></div></div><div>--------------------------------------<br><br><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Seeya 'round town, Moscow, because . . .</span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><br></span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">"Moscow Cares" (the most fun you can have with your pants on)</span></div><div><a href="http://www.moscowcares.com/" style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"><font color="#000000">http://www.MoscowCares.com</font></a></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);"> </span></div><div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Tom Hansen</span></div><div><span style="background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0);">Moscow, Idaho</span></div></div><div> </div></div></div></div></body></html>
