General Starry faces Pentagon review over war remarks
Lt. Gen. Donn Starry, commander of the 5th Corps in Germany, was ordered to report to the Pentagon after suggesting in a Frankfurt graduation speech that the Soviet Union and China may fight a major war in the lifetimes of the students. The comment comes amid a broader shakeup after Maj. Gen. John Singlaub was relieved in Korea for opposing troop withdrawal. Starry, 52, will return to the United States to take command of the Army Training and Doctrine Command at Fort Monroe, Virginia.
