Allegations against former Regimental CO Colonel Vanek sparked an investigation of the Ranger Regiment and evidently there were many eyebrows raised.I suspect Colonel Vanek wont be getting anymore promotions and will be retiring at some point.he was commissioned in 1989 so he has sufficient service to retire as a Colonel.

An impromptu round of “The Newlywed Game,” a Hollywood-themed party, at least two overpriced hotel room bills, and a tandem skydiving jump with a civilian were among the allegations of misconduct levied against the former commander of the 75th Ranger Regiment.
The allegations against Col. Christopher Vanek were outlined in an Army Regulation 15-6 investigation. Army Times obtained the report via the Freedom of Information Act.
Vanek was reprimanded as a result of the investigation. An Army official who spoke on background to Army Times said Vanek received a general officer letter of reprimand, which can often be a career killer.
