Army relieves 172nd Infantry Brigade Commander
GRAFENWÖHR, Germany -- The Army has relieved the commander of the 172nd Infantry Brigade, shortly before the unit intensifies its training for an Afghanistan deployment this summer.Acting V Corps commander Brig. Gen. Allen W. Batschelet said Tuesday that Col. Frank Zachar was relieved of command on Monday, "... due to loss of confidence in his ability to command." This one has a very bad smell. Got to be more to this story. Batschelet was heavily decorated and headed for a star. The CSM is to be reassigned as well. Posted by: Besoeker 2011-01-05 |
