Timeline

1959

Kirk S. Lippold (born April 29, 1959 ) is a former U.S. Navy officer.

1981

Lippold is a 1981 graduate of the United States Naval Academy.

1987

He received a Masters of Science in Systems Engineering (Joint Command, Control and Communications) from the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, which he attended from 1987 to 1989.

1994

He graduated from United States Army Command and General Staff College in 1994 and from Joint Forces Staff College in 2001.

1999

Lippold assumed command of Cole on June 25, 1999, and served until he was relieved on March 9, 2001.

Before serving as commanding officer of USS Cole from 1999 to 2001, Lippold was executive officer on the cruiser USS Shiloh (CG-67).

He also served as the operations officer on the commissioning crew of the destroyer USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51), the lead ship of the same destroyer class as Cole.

He was division officer aboard the cruiser USS Yorktown (CG-48) and the tank landing ship USS Fairfax County (LST-1193).

Following his departure from Cole, he received a series of desk positions at the Pentagon.

Working in the War on Terrorism Division of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Directorate for Strategic Plans and Policy, Lippold "was instrumental" in the creation of detainee policy in the immediate aftermath of the 9/11 attacks.

2000

He was the commanding officer of the United States Navy destroyer USS Cole (DDG-67) on October 12, 2000, when the ship was attacked and bombed by al-Qaeda terrorists during a refueling stop in the Yemeni port of Aden, killing 17 U.S. sailors.

Secretary of the Navy Winter concluded after reviewing the matter that Lippold's actions before the attack on October 12, 2000, "...did not meet the high standard..."

expected of the Navy's commanding officers.

Based on that assessment, Winter determined that Lippold was "...not the best and fully qualified for promotion to the higher grade..."

of Captain and struck him from being further eligible for promotion.

Lippold's final U.S. Navy assignment was to the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations in the International Strategy Division.

2002

A Navy promotion board had selected Lippold for promotion to captain (O-6) in 2002 but he was not confirmed by the United States Senate, this despite a 2001 Navy investigation that concluded that Lippold and his crew probably could not have prevented the attack and should not be punished (although investigators found that had Lippold followed twelve safety procedures, among several dozen which were not observed per the existing security requirements in Aden, the attack could have been mitigated or prevented).

Subsequent Navy promotion boards continued to select Lippold for captain, and in all cases the selection was subsequently struck down by the Senate.

2006

On August 22, 2006, the Associated Press reported that Secretary of the Navy Donald C. Winter removed Lippold from the promotion list.

2007

He retired as a commander in May 2007 at the age of 48 during a ceremony at the United States Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Lippold is a senior military fellow with Military Families United, an advocacy group opposed to the release of prisoners held at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base.

2009

On June 22, 2009, The Washington Times published an op-ed by Lippold that was critical of the Barack Obama administration, for not showing enough sympathy to American victims of terror.

Lippold asserted that the families of the victims of terror should play a role in deciding which terror suspects should be tried, and in which kind of court they should be tried.

2010

On February 4, 2010, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported that Lippold was considering a run for U.S. Senate in Nevada against Harry Reid.

He did not enter the race.

2011

Instead, he ran for the Republican nomination in the 2011 Nevada 2nd congressional district special election.

He lost to Mark Amodei and declined to run as an Independent.

2012

2015

On October 12, 2015, the fifteenth anniversary of the bombing of USS Cole, Lippold appeared on Your World Cavuto and repeated his call from 2009 for justice for the Cole victims.
