Well, lets see what I know:

1. Shinseki didn't clean out his desk.
2. Didn't leave the building.
3. Didn't lose one iota of his command authority.
4. Didn't stop attending JCS meetings.
5. Didn't stop travelling around giving speeches as the CSA.
6. Served his ENTIRE assignment period as specified under Public Law.

Yep, not "fired".

Didn't get an extension similar to the one the CNO got.

Extensions aren't mandatory, nor has one been used for any CSA since 1964,
including during Vietnam.

Under those
circumstances, you may not think he was fired, but I'd bet a bucket of
warm spit
that Shinseki thinks he was.

Yes, please tell us what Shinseki thinks. Perhaps a link to his opinion
would help.

A flag officer I know thinks he was and, further,
says that most flag officers see it that way.

So you differ with them.....but they made flag rank and you and I made
what???

I know the definition of "fired" and he doesn't fit it.

Are you trying to tell us that you know how those things work better than
the
ones who are directly involved? If so, then I give up because I can't
argue
with such arrogance.

Speaking of arrogance . . .
