Under any other administration, the public nature of his criticism would sheild him from reprisals, but in this one...which clearly cares little or nothing about public opinion, I would guess his days are numbered, probably literally....he'll be in the first line of fire.

This morning on NPR, they interviewed this guy's wife, other people in Tennessee where he came from, and various other military people. Every single one was supportive of him and the military officials quoted in the story said there would be no backlash. My guess is that, if anything even slightly goes against this guy, that it will get all kinds of coverage. I think he's safe.
