Ike’s son passes up retirement to edit books in New York
Lt. Col. John S. Eisenhower, resigning from the Army to become a non fiction editor at Doubleday in New York, declines a 372.50 monthly retirement. He would have been eligible in June 1964 after nearly 19 years of service, instead of completing 20. He fears criticism of himself and his father. He joined the White House staff in 1958 and has been researching The White House Years for a future two volume work. The Army notes leave without pay counts toward retirement, but special circumstances likely drew criticism.
