Secretary of Defense, out

Comment Up

Chuck Hagel, a former Senator, was the first enlisted combat military veteran to become secretary of defense. He served in the Vietnam War and received two Purple Hearts along with Army Commendation Medal; Vietnamese Gallantry Cross; and the Combat Infantryman Badge. He was a Republican reporting to a Democratic president.  His days were numbered.

He had sent a letter to the Whitehouse that said the president needed to articulate a clearer view of the administration's approach to dealing with Syrian President Bashar Assad. The letter is said to have angered White House officials. That, among other views, Chuck Hagel was forced to resign. Click here...
