Army leader reveals Spc. Vanessa Guillen’s entire chain of command at Fort Hood was fired

Fort Hood, Sgt. Maj. of the Army Michael Grinston told soldiers Thursday at the base.

 

Speaking to a group of about two dozen junior enlisted soldiers, Grinston used the firings as an example of how the Army is taking action to root out leaders who allow corrosive behavior to persist in the ranks.

 

Fourteen leaders faced disciplinary action following the Dec. 8 release of the Fort Hood Independent Review Committee report that found the command climate and culture problems at the base were a result of poor leadership. At the time, only action taken against leaders in positions at the brigade level and above were identified, in accordance with Army personnel privacy policy.

 

Leaders responsible for Guillen in her squad, platoon, company and battalion were also fired, Grinston said Thursday.

 

Previously announced firings in Guillen’s chain of command included Maj. Gen. Scott Efflandt, the deputy commander of III Corps who was the acting base commander at the time of Guillen’s disappearance and death, and Col. Ralph Overland and Command Sgt. Maj. Bradley Knapp, the commander and top enlisted soldier of Guillen’s unit, the 3rd Cavalry Regiment.

 

Maj. Gen Jeff Broadwater and Command Sgt. Maj. Thomas Kenny of the 1st Cavalry Division, which was not part of Guillen’s chain of command, were suspended following the report’s release, pending the results of a new investigation into the unit’s command climate and implementation of a sexual assault prevention program.

Laser weapons have long been the “next big thing” coming to the battlefield.

 

“Next” is finally here.

 

The first combat-capable lasers mounted on Stryker vehicles is on track for operational fielding by Fiscal Year 2022.
