He was commissioned, as an infantry officer, as a Distinguished Military Graduate in 1976. He later received his master's degree in National Security and Strategic Studies from the U.S. Naval War College inNewportRhode Island as well as graduating from several military schools including the Infantry Officer Basic Course, the Armor Officer Advanced Course, the College of Naval Command and Staff of the U.S. Naval War College and the U.S. Air Force Air War College. He is a member of the John Carroll University ROTC Hall of Fame. He and his wife, Christi, are both John Carroll University graduates.
Ham's early assignments included service at Fort Knox, Kentucky and tours of duty in Italy and Germany. After graduating from the Armor Officers Advanced Course, he was a Recruiting Area Commander in Lima, Ohio. In 1984, he served with a joint service unit in support of the Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
From 1984 until 1989, Ham served as Assistant Inspector General, then as Battalion S-3 and Executive Officer with the Opposing Force at the National Training Center, Fort Irwin, California. He attended the College of Naval Command and Staff, graduating with distinction in 1990, and was then assigned to the U.S. Army Infantry School at Fort Benning, Georgia.
He served a tour as an advisor with a Saudi Arabian National Guard Brigade in Riyadh as part of OPM-SANG then returned to Fort Benning, where he was the executive officer for the Infantry School. Ham commanded the 1st Battalion, 6th Infantry in Vilseck, Germany including a six-month tour with the United Nations Protection Forces in the Republic of Macedonia. Following battalion command, he was the Senior Observer/Controller of the Timberwolf Team at the Combat Maneuver Training Center, Hohenfels, Germany.
He graduated from the Air War College in 1997 then returned to Germany where he served as G-3, then Chief of Staff, 1st Infantry Division. From 1999 to 2001 he commanded the 29th Infantry Regiment at Fort Benning, then served as Deputy Director, J-8, United States Central Command in Tampa, Florida and Qatar. Ham was assigned as the Deputy Commanding General for Training and Readiness, I Corps at Fort Lewis, Wash. in August 2003. In January 2004, he assumed command of Multinational Brigade (Task Force Olympia) – North in Mosul, Iraq serving there until February 2005. During his time in Iraq, Ham suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder, which was caused by his attending the aftermath of a deadly suicide bombing at a mess hall. He later sought treatment for his condition and publicly encouraged other soldiers to do the same.[2]
Returning from Iraq, Ham served as the Deputy Director for Regional Operations, J-3, on The Joint Staff. Ham assumed command of the 1st Infantry Division at Fort Riley, Kansas in August 2006 and served as the Commanding General until July 2007, returning to The Joint Staff as Director for Operations, J-3. On August 28, 2008, Ham became the 34th Commander of the United States Army Europe headquartered at Campbell Barracks,Heidelberg, Germany. In 2010, General Ham served as co-chair for the comprehensive review of issues associated with the repeal of the "Don't ask, don't tell" policy.[3]
The U.S. Senate, in November 2010, confirmed Ham's nomination to become the next Commander of U.S. Africa Command, headquartered at Kelley Barracks, Stuttgart, Germany.[4] He assumed the post on March 8, 2011.
Ham was in command of U.S. forces enforcing the Libyan no-fly zone, along with Admiral Samuel J. Locklear.[citation needed] Described as "in charge of the coalition effort", Ham on March 21, 2011 "said there would be coalition airstrikes on Colonel Qaddafi’s mobile air defenses and that some 80 sorties – only half of them by the United States – had been flown on Monday."[5] Admiral Locklear, aboard the flagship Mount Whitney, has tactical command of theOperation Odyssey Dawn joint taskforce.[6] "General Ham also said he had “full authority” to attack the regime’s forces if they refused to comply withPresident Obama’s demands that they pull back from AjdabiyaMisrata and Zawiya," according to one report. Earlier, he said that the United States was not working with the Libyan rebels. “Our mission is not to support any opposition forces,” Ham said by video feed to the Pentagon from his headquarters in Stuttgart.[5]
After a normal 24-month tour of duty[7] as Commander, U.S. Africa Command, General Ham was succeeded by General David M. Rodriguez.[8] General Ham retired in June 2013.[3]

Views[edit]

Ham was quoted in an online Washington Post article by Greg Miller and Craig Whitlock, posted on October 1, 2012, that, as saying, that, as a result of al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb's overtaking and capturing more territory in Mali in Africa, and possessing arms from Libya after the Libyan Civil War which overthrew Muammar Gaddafi, there is the possibility of the U.S. assisting, but not leading, counterterrorism operations done by other countries. A more radical step would be the use of drones.[9]
While speaking about the Chinese presence that was "everywhere" in Africa, Ham expressed an appreciation for the economic competition between China and the U.S. in Africa, observing that China was "very good at infrastructure development -- roads, bridges, airports, government buildings and the like -- constructed by the Chinese in -- which greatly benefits the African people."[10]

If he is not elected then he cannot be considered the president of the republic. The only way this can legitimaly happen is if Obama declared Martial Law and suspends the constitution himself. Any other way is Treason and unconstitutional and should not be supported by anyone that has served in any government capacity. This is not patriotic. Only by doing this the proper way would it ever be supported.

Please consider posting the following on the main blog (I'm not sure how to reach John). If not, please post this reply (without this note :) Thank you!

Please, friends, consider this carefully. The people of America live in an extremely well-crafted Matrix. The vast majority know nothing of the illegal corporation which usurped legal, constitutional governance of the United States over a hundred years ago. About half the voting electorate WANT Obama as president (just as previously about half the voting electorate wanted Bush as president).

Imagine an emergency broadcast over T.V. that tried to explain that the United States now has a new, lawful, constitutional government. The people realize they had no say in the installation of this government; those government officials who, in the minds of the people, had been lawfully elected and selected by the people are now deposed and many have been arrested.

Meanwhile, the mainstream media --- owned lock, stock and barrel by the creators of the Matrix --- bombard the people with counterpoint --- SPIN --- and it comes in one phrase: COUP D’ETAT. Sure we’re being promised that REAL elections will take place in a few months, but isn’t that the promise of every coup? THE COUNTRY WOULD BE IN SHAMBLES WITHIN HOURS!

I’m not saying that we don’t need a new, LAWFUL, CONSTITUTIONAL government. I’m one of those who is awake (which, according to the mainstream media, means I’m a paranoid conspiracy theorist --- think about it). But it should be obvious to discerning, critical thinkers that it will remain necessary for some additional, undetermined amount of time, to EDUCATE --- at a grass-roots, resistance-styled level --- the prisoners of the Matrix so that a critical mass of the “awakened” are prepared to RECEIVE the restoration of our republic. I sincerely doubt that anything approaching critical mass exists just yet, and in the resulting civil war, the “awakened” would be too vastly out-numbered to prevail.

So what can the “awakened” do? Right now we must be patient and prepare by getting the truth about the Matrix out in any and all ways possible (as John does with his blog, for example). Many more must see the Matrix for the prison it is before the United States can be restored.

He would only be acting president until a brand new election is held 6 months after the introduction of the new republic. After the u.s. and the rest of the world has got a full understanding of Nesara, Global arrests of cabal members, Currency Reset or Global market crash and reboot, and the truth over however many generations of lies. Then new elections can begin, simultaneously the release of classified technologies.

KEL....YOU NEED TO READ THE CONSTITUTION ....OUR FOUNDING FATHERS MADE A PROVISION (IN IT) FOR THIS TYPE OF THING..... HOWEVER IF GENERAL HAM IS NOT A BUSH PLANT TO URSURP OUR REPUBLIC......ITS TIME FOR HIM TO STOP THESE F'ING CHEMTRAILS AND HAARP.....AND SHOW US HE HAS SHUT THEM DOWN.....

Kel, the constitution is already suspended. It does not apply to the UNITED STATES, Inc. It only applies to the Republic, if we still had one. Obama is not the commander-in-chief of the united States either. Does Microsoft have a commander-in-chief or any other corporation. So treason doesn't apply either, since the constitution is suspended until we do get our Republic back. When these critters hold up their hands and swear to uphold and defend the constitution it's just for show. It's a fiction; just like your name in all CAPS.

WE ALSO NEED A TOP NAME TV / MOVIE STAR DELIVERING THE MESSAGE SO THE MAJORITY WILL NOT FREAK OUT AND DO SOMETHING STUPID.... THE STATIONS NEED TO BE COMPLETELY TAKEN OVER SO SOMEONE FROM THE CABAL WILL NOT OVERIDE THE MESSAGE.... IN THE MEAN TIME WHERE IS HAM ??......ORDER NUMBER 1. STOP SPRAYING US WITH THE CHEMTRAILS 2. STOP THE HAARP 3. ?????????"

the last post was almost correct. There are indeed 2 different Constitutions. THe Constitution for the united states of America of the several states combined.....THAT is THE original one.......and then there is the one which the liars and legal pretenders abide in which is called The Constitution of THE UNITED STATES.......it is basically a change of one little word but like most jew lawyer tricks the meaning of the whole enchilada changes with that one word change. THEIR Constitution is basically a "corporate charter and mission statement" and does not include any BIll of Rights for any Americans. Please look it all up

Kel...have you served your country? If you have...you should know that Obama doesn't have to declare martial law nor suspend the Constitution.... the Military can actually step in and say enough is enough, Bon Voyage! There actually is a provision as Anon says .....BTW, it's what the Rose Garden wall was intended for! The Military would charge Obama with Treason, find him guilty and execute him....then the Country would be under Martial Law! Elections would be cancelled, a New Constitution written and afterwards, when all has been done...Elections would once again be given back.

It's very patriotic! The Military take an oath to defend against the enemies within and without and to the Constitution.

"If you are not elected you can't be president?" Obviously the person who said that don't know about George Washington, John Adams, or Thomas Jefferson as these presidents wasn't elected but rather appointed. Also don't be fooled by the illusion of an election anyway. In a democracy anything goes. Remember Al Gore won the election but did he become president? As a matter of fact George Bush Jr stole the Presidency twice. The second time it was via the voting machines. Please face the facts people we've been duped. I really hope General Ham isn't compromised. I pray he have the Moral integrity to actually respect the Treaties and Constitution FOR the Organic America. The real authority that was giving to EUROPEANS by the real AMERICAN HEIRS which are the MOORS. Peace
