"Steve Bigelow served on active duty in the USAF for nearly 33 years. He was enlisted ten years; four years in Supply and six years in Procurement. After commissioning, he worked in TS/SCI programs including assignments to the Office of the Secretary of the Air Force, Office of Special Projects, and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Current Operations. While at the JCS/J-33, he was liaisoned to the National Security Office. He reported a procurement irregularity to the JCS and NSA IG. The incumbent contractor lost a $250 million five-year contract. In violation of regulations, he was removed from the JCS. He refused an article 15 and demanded a court-martial. Instead, he received three letters of reprimand and was threatened with removal from the Lieutenant Colonel Promotion List. After three years, he was reassigned and retired as a Lieutenant Colonel. The US Supreme Court refused to hear his invasion of privacy case."[1]
