Retired Army Lt. Gen. Phillip Kensinger, a three-star general formerly in charge of U.S. special operations in Afghanistan, was singled out for censure Tuesday for his role in notifying the family of Army Ranger Pat Tillman, who died by friendly fire in April 2004.
Army Secretary Peter Geren has ordered a review board to investigate whether to strip Kensinger of one of his stars, which would also reduce his pension by approximately $900 a month if the board of four-star generals recommends this rebuke. Their recommendation is non-binding.
Nine other officers were also criticized but not punished...More?
