The specifications included 1) not reporting exactly what valuables he found in a casino bathroom when he initially reported finding valuables to casino management and 2) lying to an Iowa investigator in the casino when questioned about the incident. As a result of being suspended pending resolution of the ongoing investigation, Giardina reverted to the rank of rear admiral[3] Navy careerGiardina graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1979 with a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics.[4] Counterfeit poker chipsIn June 2013, Giardina was caught using three counterfeit gambling chips in a Council Bluffs casino.[5] Giardina was investigated by the Navy and suspended from duty in September 2013. Later investigation revealed that someone had altered several $1 chips into $500 chips with adhesive tape and paint. It was further alleged that Giardina would spend approximately 15 hours a week on occasion playing poker.[6] In May 2014, he was found guilty of two counts of "conduct unbecoming an officer and a gentleman." He reverted from vice admiral to rear admiral, was removed from his position as deputy commander at Strategic Command, and was given a staff officer position in Washington, D.C.[7] References1. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.omaha.com/news/ex-stratcom-deputy-commander-says-he-regrets-not-defending-himself/article_4a1b74c0-35ad-5040-b82f-6fbc432250ed.html|title=Ex-StratCom deputy commander says he regrets not defending himself over fake poker chips|first=Steve|last=Liewer|date=February 20, 2014|accessdate=January 12, 2017|work=Omaha World-Herald|location=Omaha, Nebraska}} 2. ^{{cite news| url=http://news.nationalpost.com/news/admiral-fired-as-second-in-command-of-u-s-nuclear-forces-allegedly-made-his-own-counterfeit-500-poker-chips |title=Admiral fired as second in command of U.S. nuclear forces allegedly made his own counterfeit $500 poker chips|last=Burns|first=Robert|date=November 22, 2014|work=National Post|location=Toronto|accessdate=November 22, 2014}} 3. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.navy.mil/submit/display.asp?story_id=80812|title=Rear Admiral Giardina Receives NJP|date= May 5, 2014|work=United States Navy Office of Information|accessdate=22 November 2014}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.navy.mil/navydata/bios/navybio.asp?bioID=121 |title=Rear Admiral Timothy M.
