Hood say COL. Ann Meredith, commander of the 89th MP Brigade, has been suspended pending the results of an ongoing investigation.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"storyline-p f4 \">The suspension comes three months after her husband, Col. Jon Meredith, was fired from his command position in the 1st Cavalry Division because of another ongoing investigation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"storyline-p f4 \">Col. Wayne Marotto, spokesman for III Corps and Fort Hood, declined to say Monday what kind of investigation is underway. \u201cAs a matter of policy, the Army does not comment on ongoing investigations,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"storyline-p f4 \">Lt. Gen. Sean C. Bernabe, commander of III Corps and Fort Hood, suspended Meredith on Jan. 5, Marotto said. She had been in the job since July.<\/p>\n<p>Meredith has served 23 years in the Army and deployed one time each to Afghanistan and Iraq, according to her online biography. She previously served as the military police branch chief with Human Resources Command at Fort Knox, Ky., and as commander of the 97th Military Police Battalion and director of emergency services at Fort Riley, Kan.<\/p>\n<p>Jon Meredith was fired in October from his position as commander of the 1st Brigade Combat Team of the 1st Cavalry Division because of a loss of confidence in his judgment, Marotto said at the time.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.stripes.com\/branches\/army\/2023-02-06\/fort-hood-military-police-fired-9059750.html\">Star &amp; Stripes<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Can&#8217;t say I can recall a husband and wife team both having this kind of issue at one time before, much less full colonels (that&#8217;s &#8220;Captains&#8221; to you nautical types).
