General George is expected to be replaced by Gen. Christopher LaNeve, who previously served as Mr. Hegseth's senior military assistant in the Pentagon. In addition to removing General George, Mr.
Hegseth also fired Gen. David M. Hodne, who was promoted in October to lead the Army's Transformation and Training Command, a key four-star position focused on Army modernization and doctrine.
Mr. Hegseth also fired Maj. Gen. William Green Jr., the Army's top chaplain, an official said.
General George's dismissal had been rumored for months. He learned that he was being replaced on Thursday during a 4 p.m. phor call from Mr. Hegseth, Army officials said. CBS News reported his firing around the same time Mr. Hegseth placed the call.
