Army McCarthy clash deepens over records and honor
The lengthy Army McCarthy feud centers on records the Army refused to disclose and on perceived insults to officers. Pentagon figures say McCarthy damaged Army honor, with Stevens defending the service and questioning McCarthy's tactics. The dispute traces to September 1953 over civilian hires and Peress, leading to memoranda and testimonies that polarized Capitol Hill and the White House.
