Defense Secretary Ash Carter is removing a senior military assistant, Army Lt. Gen. Ron Lewis, from his position after learning about allegations of misconduct, Carter announced Thursday.

"I directed that this matter be referred to the inspector general of the Department of Defense for investigation," he said in a statement.

" allegations of misconduct

That would usually mean the good General was caught screwing the hired help.

Or fooling around with female subordinates, which apparently is quite common.

We know he’s a male.

He must also be a white Christian heterosexual.

In this administration no females are ever disciplined.

No blacks are ever disciplined.

No muslsims are ever disciplined.

No sexual pervs are ever disciplined.

He probably wouldn’t put out for one of his homo superiors.

I knew Ron Lewis when he was the 1-227 ATK Bn Cdr at Ft Hood. Cocky SOB and wore his blackness on his sleeve. I always had a gut feeling he would rise fast and crash hard.

In this day and age it means that the General backed a moral stance of some sort.

Aviation Branch Officer.

Was previously Army’s chief of public affairs. The PAO types, well, they are close knit.
