Resignation of Angus Campbell
The issue
Angus Campbell is a senior officer in the Australian Army, Chief of the Defence Force 2018–present.
Angus had a stroke, it would seem, his nickname by the Defence force is now affectionately known as "Old Wonky Eye" or CDF wonky eye" and other iterations. Even after suffering a stroke, old mate "wonky eye" Angus, somehow, is still not medically discharged from the Army. There is no way he is meeting the physical requirements for someone at such a high rank. Rank doesn't entitle you to get out of physical activity; The oath to serve your country did not include a contract for normal luxury, and comforts enjoyed within our society, on the contrary it implied hardships loyalty and devotion to duty, regardless of your rank.
2018 - "Chief of Army retreats on ‘death icons’ ban" Chief of Army back-peddled somewhat, advising commanders throughout the Army that they could now write to him outlining arguments why they should be allowed to retain a symbol or icon covered by the original minute. We, the Australian public would like Angus to tell us why he should have an ICB, as it is a symbol of death and any other awards for "symbols of death" should be stripped from Angus if he feels so bad about it.
11 June 2012 – Distinguished Service Cross (DSC) – "For distinguished command and leadership in action as Commander Joint Task Force 633 on Operation SLIPPER from January 2011 to December 2011.
This award is in contradiction to his recommendation for SASR to have a unit situation removed, lead by example and remove your DCS if you truly are a man of values.
Toxic leadership and toxic Officer culture; "Remember it's always the diggers fault". You exonerate those higher up in defence from any potential liability, the troopers failings are a direct result of the failings of the officer's leadership. The officers need to be held equally responsible. Rank doesn't exonerate you from punishment, the higher your rank the more your need to take, the more burden of responsibility you take.
Angus Campbell, the Australian defence force and the Australian public have lost all faith in your ability to lead, with your contradictory commands and not leading by example other than "rules for thee but not for me".
At the very least, remove your DSC, that would show you're shouldering a very small amount of responsibility and show sacrifice, leading by example. Without any gestures, no one has any faith left in you, you pompous, cucumber sandwich eating, shill.
