摘要

Retired Air Force Brig. Gen. Terryl J. Schwalier, who commanded the 4404th Wing (Provisional) at Dhah-ran, Saudi Arabia, at the time of the terrorist attack on Khobar Towers in 1996, cannot challenge the Clinton Administration-era ruling to pass him over for promotion, according to a US appeals court ruling in January. Schwalier and his supporters, including the Air Force Association, have long argued the decision made him a scapegoat for the attack and that he had actually improved defenses at the facility prior to the attack. Schwalier was first approved for promotion in 1995, with the Senate confirming the nomination in March 1996. In the aftermath of the June 1996 attack, then-Secretary of Defense William S. Cohen recommended President Clinton remove Schwalier's name from the promotion list-forcing his retirement in 1997.
