Navy officer fights forced retirement after promotion rule
Lt. Doreen Jean Two, a 14 year Navy veteran with a presidential commendation, says it is inconceivable that she must leave under the rules that force officers twice passed over for promotion out of the service. She has a pending US District Court appeal and notes her record includes a presidential citation and medals for saving more than a half million dollars at Whidbey Island NAS.
