AR,
With SecDef Gates having already fired some GO's out of the gate, my bet is that some GOs who may be upset at this uppity LTC will be gunshy in their efforts, lest the SecDef catch wind of their efforts.
Also, I am sure that having served for COL HR McMaster, who, as you well know, has been the superstar of both ODS and OIF, will provide LTC Yingling some top cover. I wouldn't be surprised if COL McMaster was one of those 30 or so colleagues who read his piece and offered input prior to publishing.
