He did. He sent a memo to the then commander, did a confidential survey, sent the survey result to the commander, and sent few more memos to other senior officers. None were interested in his work. They dismissed his questions and concerns. Search the phrase "After about 40 hours of flying with the filter." I have to say in a disciplined organization like military, it's always a bad idea to speak on behalf of your organization without approval. There are all kinds of gotchas in these organizations. But if these officers dismiss his concerns, I really think he has the right to ask for help in public. In the end, he's a human being.
