It looks like Congress is poised to fire DOZENS of generals | BizPac Review:
"The 2017 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) as summarized by the Senate Armed Services Committee proposes a 25 percent reduction in Generals and Admirals across the board.
A summary of the bill provided by the committee states the drawdown in general officers also applies at the 3, 2, and 1 star levels.
The committee reasons that “Over the past 30 years, the end-strength of the joint force has decreased 38 percent, but the ratio of four-star officers to the overall force has increased by 65 percent.”
Senator Tim Kaine expressed concern over the reduction in general officers, telling Military.com, “Twenty-five percent was the number that was pulled out of thin air.”..."
