Allegations Against Four-Star General
In recent news, the US Army has suspended Gen. Charles Hamilton, a four-star general, due to allegations of tampering with the military branch's command assessment program. This suspension comes after documents revealed that Hamilton intervened in the approval process of a lieutenant colonel's command assignment.
Details of the Allegations
The female lieutenant colonel in question had originally faced a unanimous vote against her recommendation for command during an assessment board interview. Despite this, Hamilton allegedly influenced the board to grant her a second interview. However, the second interview panel also ruled against the candidate, who retains the option to attempt another assessment next year.
Repercussions and Investigations
As a result of the ongoing investigation, Hamilton has been reassigned, and the Secretary of the Army, Christine Elizabeth Wormuth, has expressed her support for the integrity of the Battalion Commander Assessment Program. Following the conclusion of Hamilton's investigation, the Army plans to review its command assessment program to ensure fairness.
Background of Gen. Charles Hamilton
Gen. Charles Hamilton assumed his role as Commanding General in March 2023, having previously served as a Lieutenant General and the Army's deputy chief of staff.
