Nothing. Like most Officers...that just crapped on those below....our XO had no spine. We had an AOM and one of our brave O3's (Works at NWA now) got up and said something. None of us dared say anything. These people would trash JO's careers at the drop of a dime. At least keep you off the flight schedule. Nope, the affair was right out in the open. They would cuddle in the back of the plane when we flew them to Japan...they even had their own tunes. Honestly, I really could of cared less (about who is doing who) - but having it open and giving her not one but two NAM's and THEN a switch to the Pilot Pipeline (we had some NFO's that wanted the same) appalling. The Doc was a member of our Squadron.
That is a failure of your communities leadership and that of your squadron - your own included (you even admitted to not even caring). Again - same situation except our XO did what he was suppose to and the company grade officers did too. No one's career was hurt and no one was grounded (except for those invovled).
The Doc is still not in the chain of command of the MO. Your flight surgeon reports directly to the CO. Still no conflict.
