Unusual Military Callup
We have family who served or are serving in the military. We have friends and co-workers who have or are in the line of fire at this moment. We are vaguely familiar with a number of career tracks within the military. But the career of Shortshanks' son puzzles us:
Mayor Richard Daley said Tuesday that his son, Patrick, has been called back to active duty in the Army.
"My son had a responsibility to serve four years in the military," Daley said. "He's been redeployed, and so he will serve his country just like every other son and daughter of this country who does the same thing."
Patrick Daley was living in Moscow when he got word of his recent redeployment, said the mayor...
He comes, he goes, he leaves school, he serves, he leaves the country, he gets recalled, it's all very odd.
Labels: we got nothing

blah blah blah when does he get to be mayor??
What the heck was he doing in Moscow? finding more "friends" to start taxi businesses in Chicago?
yeah,when i got out of the military i went home for awhile and moved on from there once i got a job!i didnt say lets go to moscow russia or even california for gods sake!i went home!!whats really goin on here??
I respect Patrick Daley's military service but I find the call back to service highly suspect.
When will Patrick Daley answer the allegations brought forth by the US Attorney's Office?
Is Patrick Daley being activated on a favor via Obama?
Are they keeping Patrick Daley in an undisclosed TOP SECRET location to stymie the Federal investigation?
What is so TOP SECRET about disclosing where an ENLISTED man is serving?
The media needs to be asking the real questions not fluffing up for Mayor Richard M Daley's 2011 election bid.
The citizens of Chicago deserve the truth, we are sick of media spin and the media's coddling of a very corrupt Mayor.
Looks like the 101st Airborne needs Pat's specialty. His last deployment was done in a mail room far away from danger.
He's a VERY special kid, SCC. He's just special.
It's all apparently a b bunch of BS. The military won't comment on it, and obviously Shortshanks is running a media blackout on the whole thing, except for the BS he's leaked himself to the press.
Someone will have the real scoop on it soon.
It's possible but very suspicious. We need to file a FOIA request concerning Patrick with the DOD. Second City, you could do it and it would be free because you are a media outlet. Please do it. America.
I would say the feds had the army recall him to get him back in the states so they can indict him.
4 more years without prosecution.
Was he AWOL?
ANYTHING TO STAY OUT OF JAIL.
Hmmmm, 30 day callup of a discharged soldier... Probably spending quality time with the Judge Advocate General's folks
He got booted out cuz he pissed hot for weed..Hmm,did Fitzgerald find a way to get his hands on this thieving Jagoff?Patrick was living in Moscow for a reason..The Russian government has been very uncooperative with the FBI and the DOJ on previous requests on extraditions and information on persons of interest to the FBI/DOJ. The Russian Mafia has big money invested in Chicago.This gonna get interesting...
maybe so he can be interviewed or indicted
Patrick, (AKA) the only "normal" Daley
So maybe someone can answer this question. Can you supeona a soldier in a foreign country?
The only thing I could think of is this. After doing my 4 year hitch (which was actually an 8 year contract. 4 active 4 Inactive Reserve) about 2 years into Civilian life I received a letter from the DOD asking if I still had all my limbs and was still considered full duty. I replied, then I was told to report to Des Plaines, for a physical to be re activated. I went and they never did reactivate me, but I could have been.
Depending on his MOS (job) recalls from IRR happen all the time. The Army is hurting for certain skill levels.
When I was in Afghanistan they recalled a 63 year old dentist from the reserve IRR.
Lot of speculation and bullshit here.
Young Fredo Daley went into the Army in December of 04. You incur an eight year service obligation. That makes him vulnerable to callup until December 2012.
All kinds of soldiers in various skills have been getting called back. Hell, they even call back cooks and have them serve as personal security to higher ranking officers.
I don't have any special insight into the specifics of his situation, but it is likely he just got called back.
The conspiracy theories are a bit much.
He went in and wanted to be Ranger qualified infantry. Apparently he never got past the Airborne course. Considering he was a tubby 29 year old a the time that isn't surprising or a disgrace.
From the little I gather from the media he took some language classes while in the Army. He clearly knows some Ruskie and maybe he has some knowledge of Middle Eastern languages too. I don't know.
Maybe there is more to it, but I doubt it.
That doesn't mean I don't think he and his papa aren't huge tools. They are.
They seem to think the City of Chicago exists for their benefit.
More fluff 4 his resume. king shorshanks plans to pass his kingdom of chgo. to prince patrick. What a joke, I feel sorry for whatever kid did not get appointed to West Point, when they gave it to the prince instead. richie's kid has made a mockery of the military, IMHO, even though I am sure at some later date we will be told he was on some super-secret mission and it was all good.
Perhaps he got called up for the court martial. That would fit right in with his usual modus operendi.

Since when does that matter?
REMEMBER, it is the citizens of Chicago who have voted that very corrupt Mayor into office, REPEATEDLY, since 1989!
Those citizens DESERVE WHAT THEY GET ! ! !

Hopefully he gets interviewed by the FBI (usually republicans) and lies like hell and gets indicted. Police get fired for bullshit, imprisoned, suspended, call back, lives turned upside down, and on top of everything have our pension money stolen by daley's family and victimized by other daley crimes.Enough already. Maybe this will explain the "cool" relationship he has with J-Junk lately. He only hired him so he could be seen as making nice with the "G" and to have his own personal fed to insulate him and his family from prosecution. Think about it.
OT * Daley stuff
If Daley is still in office beyond December 25, 2010, he will surpass his father's record as the longest serving Mayor in Chicago history.
Some other interesting info and controversies are here, as well:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_M._Daley
I think that a lot of you are making something out of nothing. EVERY person who enlists is subject to EIGHT years of obligation, whether it is 3 or 4 years of active duty, the rest of the time is in the inactive reserve, subject to recall at the govt. whim, The army usually goes for people who have been out for 2 years of less sothey are not as rusty. Nothing unusual about this. I really know nothing about this kid's military career, but I do know the army. What is unusual is that he did it! He had a good excuse being in Russia. He could have said at at later date that he had no knowledge of the call-up
What's sad is that his mother Maggie Daley is very ill, and yet Patrick still stayed in Moscow. Clearly he's afraid to come to Chicago. What's unclear is his purpose for being in Moscow, of all conceivable places. Since a beach on a warm island would be a better place to "chill-out", his choice must be based on extradiction policies. Now that he's recalled to military service, US bases are US territory, so Fitzgerald could extend the long-arm of the law to reach our most famous delinquent, Patrick.
Want to bet he stays out of the country until the statute of limitations is up.
The cover story and media spin continues...

Patrick Daley Had Talked Of Re-upping With Army
February 10, 2010
BY MICHAEL SNEED Sun-Times Columnist
War games . . .
Dateline: The Heartline -- Mayor Daley's disclosure that his son, Patrick, was being activated by the Army and redeployed to an undisclosed location was no surprise to Sneed.
• To wit: Sneed hears Patrick had talked about re-upping shortly after he left the service in October of 2008 after serving in Afghanistan with the Army's 82nd Airborne Division.
• The downshot: Heading back into the service comes at a hard time for the family dealing with Maggie Daley's battle with cancer.

2038947,CST-NWS-SNEED10.article
that kid went to the u of c.....
nothing but the best for chicago royalty. 40,000.00/yr i think.
what do you think his dad payed ?
How does a MBA from the University of Chicago go into the army as an E-4 and stay an E-4 for his entire hitch?
Even the biggest fuckups I met in the service took at least one promotion during their 4 years.
The fact he has an advanced degree and wasn't made at least an NCO is suspect. I know he went to West Point (for only a couple of months) but he must be a real knucklehead or a stone jagoff.

Dude, think before you type.
The DOD does not, will not, give info on individual soldier deployments or their duties.
And depending on MOS you may not even get an acknowledgement that they are in the service.
There is something else going on people. The only reason he is being "called back" is because daddy got the heads up on pending investigations regarding his sons dealings with the city. Why were we not informed when his duty was done, and who decides to live in Russia after wards. This guy is staying as far away from Chicago as he could for a reason. Do you honestly believe that he is serving in the front lines anywhere near a battle field. There is nothing that he can do to actually earn some respect. Patrick is probably sorting out incoming and outgoing mail a country distance away from the nearest gun battle. The guy is a total asshat just like his retarded father who failed his lawyers exam, and now hes the Da- mayor.
I'm guessing that his new "Permanent Duty Assignment" will be Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, or one of the military's other fine penal institutions if everyone is being this hush hush.....time will tell.
GCG
another IED - improvised excused Daley.
Patrick, (AKA) the only "normal" Daley
who you kiddin.
The Russian goverment will not serve any supeonas or extridate him back to Illinois but Fritz can have him called up and grab him when he arrives in the US for questioning about his cousin and their dealings. Funny he never came back to visit his sick mother! But as King Shortshanks said it's all good nothing hanky panky here move along!
Who cares he was called back. He's not in any real danger. Knowing his family history, he's sitting back, like dear ol dad, while the real troops do the fighting. As far as Russia is concerned maybe Daley is sending Frado over there to jump from Italian mob to Russian. Sickle and Hammer.
It's an 8 year contract boys, they do occasionally call up guys from the IRR or he may have put in for a deployment from the IRR. Either way he is doing something most of you guys havnt done and most of you would never do. No I am not a Daley fan and I have never met his kid. CPD reservist
What REMF unit is he in??
Isn't there something in the law that says an active duty soldier can't be sued in civil court? President Clinton tried to use it when he was president. His legal claim was that he couldn't be sued since he was the active Commander and Chief of the Armed Forces. This might have something to do with the recall.
This kid is in trouble, guaranteed. The military does not call lower enlisted's back to active duty for a 30 day period for any reason except to put them under the UCMJ.
Man, now I'm really wondering what junior has been up to......

Shortshanks can.
I've been in the military 12 years and have plenty of friends in the reserves. And none of this makes sense! He got called up? Just him? Cause the president hasn't issued any recalls! And that works by complete units not just one guy. The last time it happened was when Bush ordered a recall to support Iraq. I would love too know what his reserve status is, IRR, SMCR? Does anyone know?
Patrick's in Moscow looking for Moose and Squirrel to take the blame for everything wrong with Chicago.
You guys got him all wrong. He is really the "Jason Bourne" of Halsted St. When he figures out who he is and "whoz his daddy" he will really snap.
If you have served in the military you know that it can be an 8 year commitment with 4 years being in the inactive reserve where you can be called back. Our troops are called back into service all the time. I dont know what he did in the military or care to know but he did volunteer during war time. Give him that.
Russian Mafia let him go???
If he had a critical MOS which I
doubt,I could see him getting called back up.A friend of mine is an airline pilot who flew TR-1 spyplanes,and he's never been recalled,even though he's only been out a few years.
I can think of a half dozen friends and family that got out the last 4 years and have'nt
been recalled,and they were line troops.
Somthing stinks in Denmark (I mean Moscow).
Shortshanks is grooming his piece-of-shit son to be the next mayor. He can best learn how to manage Shitcago from Putin.
I came across this web site a few months ago and just figured he was being set up for life. I do not know why they are calling him back but he is on this hot-shot board.
http://www.recovery-beyond-borders.org/board.html
Wish the military would call up Shortshanks too. It's apparent that his little "experiment" with the CPD is a dismal failure, and has been for the past two years and counting. Weis. Masters.
Cuello. Jackson. Peterson. Dugan.
Brown. and let's not forget the carpetbagger Feds Weis brought with him, Brust and Daly. O'Keefe. Murphy. Tobias.
Wedster. Gulliford.
In order for our Dept. to have any credibility, all of them will have to go. No trust or confidence in any of them.
Let the housecleaning begin.
If the G wants him they can get him Army or not. Russia on the way back or through other means he can be red flagged when he travels. They will be able to know his whereabouts if needed. All in all fuck him and his old man.
He's still in IRR
So maybe someone can answer this question. Can you supeona a soldier in a foreign country?
Not sure who "you" is in your question, but there are many government entities, departments, courts, juries, and court martials that can issue a supoena to any individual person anywhere.
Look da Army needs some secret sewer work. Dey also need some improvements to da fences and flower boxes in da green zone. So shut yer yap, Patrick ken get dat done super lickety quickly!!
THAT ANSWER IS YES !!

Please step away from the alcohol and the computer.
I ain't buying it.
The DoD has really cut back on stop-loss and IRR callbacks. I'm wondering if something is coming down involving his son, and he's been told to lay low for awhile.
What better way than to say you've been called up and redeployed? Of course, if he has actually been called up, there would be a paper trail of orders, etc.
And if he hasn't been called up, and da Mayor is just blowing smoke up everybody's asses, then he's lower than whale shit.
In his press conference, he alluded to his son's callup as being some sort of hush-hush, confidential, secret squirrel mission.
I'm pretty sure Patrick was just a regular joe, just like 99% of the people who serve in Big Army.
From the little I gather from the media he took some language classes while in the Army. He clearly knows some Ruskie and maybe he has some knowledge of Middle Eastern languages too. I don't know.
-----------------------------------
Oh really? When? Where?
He went direct to Infantry basic, airborne school and then was assigned to the 82nd.
If he took any language classes through the Army, he would have had to qualify through a DLAB and then gone to the Defense Language Institute out in Monterey, CA.
So, I call bullshit on the whole Russian language angle. That's about a year long course, and usually reserved for MI soldiers and officers going to serve as FAOs.
And if he has the English language skills of his dad, you can bet he doesn't have what it takes to study Russian. Qualifying and succeeding in studying any foreign language, especially a category 3 or 4 language such as Russian, is predicated on having a good grasp of your native language, in this case English.

Stay off the blog you nincompoop!
Either way he is doing something most of you guys havnt done and most of you would never do. No I am not a Daley fan and I have never met his kid. CPD reservist
JACKDOWN ASSHAT, YOU KNOW NOT WHO YOU SPEAK OF. MANY OF YOUR COMRADES IN ARMS CAME BACK FROM DEPLOYMENT TO FACE UNEMPLOYMENT & DON'T HAVE THE 56K A YEAR JOB TO FALL BACK ON. BE THANKFUL FOR THAT.
Don't be fooled. The young lad never made it through paratrooper training. He was in the motor pool or something. If you are on active duty you are excused from civil litigation from prior civilian life.
Ow Im amazed at all the military experts here. He is in a shortage MOS, he is not a mail clerk and yes there is No conspiracy. In 2010 there will be a massive muster of those in the IRR. They just need him now. Guys in his MOS got killed around 10 days ago in Pakistan. BTW Im no fan of the mayor either but leave this guys service alone. Im sure he isnt happy that he has to go. Just read the stuoid comments here. like 'I went homw after my military service" You can live anywhere you want or I did 12yrs in the military and my friend flys spy planes - OK perhaps there is no need for your "Spoke Pilot" friend. BTW if you know secrets you never tell... not even chicks LoL. SO get a grip and let it be or watch the Manchurian Candidate over and over-Semper FI 0311 CAR
my sister is a marine and tyhis is BS for sure girl friend!

actually, since his native language is daley-speak, picking up on soviet style mumbo jumbo should come naturally to him.
After I retired at the ripe old age of 43, I was, as a member of the Retired Reserve, subject to recall until the age of 55. Post 09/11/2001, I volunteered to return to active duty numerous times, but the Army had apparently decided it didn't need any crippled up old Armor (12/54) officers.
As for a "career" E-4, if he went into the service as an E-4, it's quite possible for him not to be promoted. Someone has to recommend an E-4 for the promotion board, and the CSMs, 1SGs, and SFCs who usually make up that board generally don't have much patience with dirtbags. I heard one 1SG tell a soldier, "Just do your time and go home, son."

Civil litigation perhaps but not criminal investigations.
That idiot kid could have had anything he wanted but he fucked it all up. Just like my fucked up nephew he don't want to work he's just waiting for his inheritance, then he won't have the smarts or morals to deal with it. Money down the fucking tubes but I bet he plays a great game of "Grand theft auto".

Probably because it violated one or more of our rules. Next question?

Somebody is off his meds.
All I gotta say is, since SNEED has written all about this, it must ALL be legit.
I would be willing to bet that he is attending college at the University of Idaho in Moscow, Idaho. Just an educated guess. Either way, I don't trust anything that comes out of Daley's mouth.
God Bless the CPD and nobody else.
Patrick Daley could have gone to Officer Candidate School when he enlisted.If he would have done that and graduated he would been assigned an platoon as a squad leader.The only problem of being an Officer or NCO in the 82nd Airborne,is that as such;you are expected to lead troops in combat. If Patrick Daley was really doing some secret squirrel shit for the US Army,Daddy Daley shouldnt be blabbing about it at a press conference.The truth will come out eventually.
He Was and Still Is A PUNK
