Kit was an Eagle Scout and served in the Army for 30 years, since he was 17. He was a Calvary Scout, Ranger, Signal Officer, and later a Master Aviator and Apache Helicopter Pilot. After 9/11, he left a very successful civilian career and returned to active duty in order to defend his country. Within eight years, he completed several combat deployments on the ground and in the air, placing himself in harm’s way almost every day. He earned three Bronze Stars, an Air Medal, and the Combat Action Badge. He was also selected to attend the United States Naval War College where he graduated with honors and earned a Master’s Degree. He has a stellar military record, superior evaluations, and never has received so much as a speeding ticket. He is a stellar soldier and a stellar human being.

Kit thought he had it all; a fairy tale marriage to a beautiful wife, three step-kids he raised as his own, and a distinguished military career ahead of him. Unknown to him, his marriage was a fairy tale, actually it was a fraud; it wasn’t real, and when he tried to divorce his cheating “bigamist” wife; a woman with a secret past, she promised to ruin his life. In response, he did everything “right” and made all notifications to local authorities and Army officials. In a court hearing his “wife” was exposed as a professional con-artist and liar that had forced her children to lie (court video). Kit thought his nightmare had ended; but he was wrong. In fact, his nightmare only continued and got worse as she then accused him of being an international spy!

Kit was then secretly investigated, then interrogated, and polygraphed and finally cleared by Army Counter Intelligence. Afterwards Kit submitted an inquiry to U.S. Senator Rand Paul. BG Stammer then tried to give Kit an Article 15 in retaliation even though he had been cleared. Army JAG and CID then re-contacted his bigamist felon ex-“wife” and instigated allegations to include rape, sexual assault, and child sex abuse. The allegations continued to escalate, finally resulting in a court-martial in which numerous other “collateral” charges were stacked on top of false sexual misconduct allegations. Initially, he faced nearly 58 years in confinement.
