Carter recalls top general over Korea withdrawal questions
President Carter ordered Maj. Gen. John Singlaub recalled from South Korea after the general publicly questioned the plan to withdraw U.S. ground forces in four to five years. Singlaub was en route home, while White House aides cited his policy-as-a-general remarks and noted the president’s prerogative as commander in chief. Critics, including Sen. Culver, called the comments damaging to negotiations and potentially insubordinate.
