Pentagon chief Pete Hegseth has ousted the highest-ranking officer in the Army as the U.S. remains at war in Iran.
The defense secretary asked Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George to step down and take immediate retirement, sources familiar with the decision told CBS News on Thursday.
After reports broke that Hegseth, 45, asked George, 61, to resign, Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said in a statement on X, “General Randy A. George will be retiring from his position as the 41st Chief of Staff of the Army effective immediately. The Department of War is grateful for General George’s decades of service to our nation. We wish him well in his retirement.”
