WASHINGTON - Army Surgeon General Kevin C. Kiley abruptly stepped down under pressure from military superiors, the third top Army official forced out in the fallout from revelations of shabby treatment of wounded soldiers at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.

The Army said Monday that Lt. Gen. Kiley had submitted a request to retire over the weekend. Acting Army Secretary Pete Geren had asked Kiley for his retirement, said a senior defense official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk about the events.

I don't much about this Kiley guy so I wont pass judgment on him but if he was a problem they shouldn't have waited till there were too many complaints to send him on his way. They should have kept an eye on him from the start.

I don't know much about him, but watched him at the hearings before the Senate last week (or the week before??) and he refused to accept any blame in any of the Walter Reed scandal or at least express genuine remorse for what had happened. Good riddance, you piece of scum.
