…investigators found that he had called and texted a female captain more than 850 times over 10 months and was spending time at her home, according to Army documents obtained by The Washington Post.<\/p>\n
Grigsby is the sixth general in the past year whom the Army has punished for sexual misconduct or improper interactions with women. Although Army leaders have been reluctant to talk publicly about the issue, the service in December appointed a three-star general to lead a review of its general-officer corps.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Apparently, Grigsby’s marital infidelity triggered a “flurry” of reports from subordinates to the Army and his wife had been on Twitter discussing the relationship – there’s a reason they call it “social media”.<\/p>\n
Grigsby\u2019s chief of staff and command sergeant major confronted him and \u201ctold him flat out that there was a very serious perception out there; \u2018people are talking about it, you need to stop,\u2019 \u201d according to the report.<\/p>\n
Others told investigators that the relationship distracted Grigsby from his unit\u2019s upcoming deployment to Iraq. One soldier said it \u201cwas affecting careers. He did not want it to get to the point where it was affecting lives,\u201d the report stated.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Well, he’s flying a desk somewhere with one less star on his collar and he’s scheduled to retire in August.<\/p>\n
So your safety briefing will last an extra half hour this weekend, and this is why.<\/p>\n
