He had his charges reversed in 1991. He ended up losing most of his ranking.
North was a U.S. Marine lieutenant colonel.

Besides that he is a good friend of Sean "Softball" Hannity. The two were funding the Freedom Alliance, a former 501 (c) (3) group that raised money for wounded veterans and their families The Freedom Concerts were hosted by North and Softball Hannity.
Conservative agitator Debbie Schlussel called out the two for promoting a scam. She wrote that the softball's expenses and performer fees outweighed the donations given to those who received them.
North is currently political commentator and host on Fox News.
He hosts the Fox News show War Stories.
Sigh.....
The idiocy of Donald J. Trump continues to chug along.
