Army counsel John G. Adams testified he had the last clear chance to block Maj. Irving Peress’s honorable discharge in 1954 but did not act. He cited lack of full facts due to transcripts being withheld by Sen. McCarthy, disputed by McCarthy who pressed to correct the record. Adams rejected claims of conspiracy with White House aides and explained a 1954 meeting with Brownell and others focused on broader issues including McCarthy’s ultimatum and Schine, not Peress.
