He could be assigned to be an aid to a high ranking person and simply be the middle man who passes messages between the higher ranking person and higher ups. He wont have a meaningful command of anything that actually suits his rank.

Let me reiterate...he was leaving anyway. Once again, a Pentagon assignment for an Army Field Grade of his background is not a demotion. Additionally, as an LTC assigned to the Pentagon, he was not going to Command anything. They are a dime a dozen and bottom of the food chain in that environment. Also, don't underestimate being a director of staff (aid) for some General. That has a promotion written all over it! I'm not talking out of my [BLEEP] here, this is 24 years of experience that involves the WH and Pentagon to name a few. I've seen folks promoted for far less than "field hygiene and sanitation affairs liaison" out of that place. L
