Washington Post: “Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on Thursday asked the Army’s top officer to step down and retire, an extraordinary move amid the war with Iran and the latest in a series of clashes between the Pentagon chief and the service’s senior leadership.”
“Gen. Randy George had been expected to hold the job of Army chief of staff until fall 2027, completing a typical four years in the post. But Hegseth has decided to go in another direction, Hegseth’s team said in brief written statement confirming the shake-up.”
