Army Bill Cuts Lieutenant General Rank And Retirement Promotions
The army appropriation bill would abolish the lieutenant general rank after General Bates. The chief of staff would become a major general, saving a few thousand dollars yearly but harming aspirants like McArthur, Corbin, and Woods who would not reach lieutenant general. The bill also bars promotion solely to raise retired pay, requiring at least one year in the higher grade before retirement, affecting many officers and trimming retired pay costs.
