Unless Schiff was doing his best Houdini impersonation, it seems pretty clear that, since Vindman testified that he only discussed the Trump-Zelensky call with two people i.e. George Kent and another person--"Schiff: ""I must caution you, LTC Vindman do not answer if your answer will out the whistleblower"" and Vindman refused to disclose the identity of the other person, he might have been referring to the WHISTLEBLOWER!!  Just a hunch on my part.  As to whether he will be promoted to colonel who knows?  I don't really know that much about his prior military experience (perhaps Fishy will be kind enough to jump on Wikipedia and give us an update).  I do know that unless he has had substantial command experience he will most definately need Army War College to have a reasonable shot, and even then it's a numbers game.  Add in his very public accusation that the Commander in Chief was a criminal, and said Commander in Chief is still Commander in Chief, well let's see how it works out for him.  Of course, if a democrat is elected, he may shoot right up to Brigadier General.
