The Joint Chiefs on the Army Chief of Staff Pete Hegseth fired:
On behalf of the Joint Force and the Joint Chiefs, we extend our deepest gratitude to Chief of Staff of the Army, General Randy George, for his decades of steadfast service to our nation. Since 1988, General George and his family have consistently answered the nation’s call with honor and dedication. We are profoundly thankful to General George and his wife, Patty, for their many years of sacrifice and devotion to those who serve. As they graduate from this distinguished chapter of service and look toward the future, we wish them both continued happiness and success in all that lies ahead.

I'm thrilled that my good friend Susan Page next week will receive the William Allen White Foundation National Citation at the University of Kansas. I hope everybody in the area will come out Thurs., April 9, to the Kansas Union to hear her address.
