1, Who did you tell? If i wasn't someone like the IG or JAG, then you failed to push the envelope. 2. If you left it with the commander- you could have used the open door policy (Army) and gone up the chain of command. 3. If you have left this fester long enough to ruin your career and suffer thru reprisal, then it might be too late to bring it back up- but IF it was a wrong- you should at least try.

Depending on the severity of what you blew the whistle on, you could always hand the proof over to Wikileaks and a certain online message board known for their detective skills.
