Army Secretary Driscoll Steps Down | Philadelphia News

His departure follows a wave of top military leadership shakeups, including the ousting of General Randy George and General Christopher Donahue.

As instability mounts across the Pentagon, questions grow louder about whether the military can maintain focus or direction in an era of accelerating warfare.
