FORT HOOD, Texas — Following the announcement that the U.S. Army had removed Maj. Gen. Scott Efflandt from command of Fort Hood, sources report that leading up to this action senior Army leaders had been shocked to learn that there was a commander there in the first place.
From a prostitution ring, to missing soldiers, to financial fraud, Fort Hood and the surrounding vicinity have been a hotbed of recent criminal activity and alleged leadership negligence. It reached the point that senior Pentagon commanders had assumed that most senior leaders at Fort Hood must have been among the numerous soldiers to have gone missing.
Maj. Bob Davis, who assisted a Pentagon Advance Team sent to the post to establish a command presence, described the operation that revealed Fort Hood’s leadership was still present on the post.
