Fort Knox general to lead Walter Reed

A combat arms brigadier general from Fort Knox will take over as deputy commanding general of the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, a move Army officials said yesterday will allow medical commanders to focus on health care while battle-hardened field officers work to regain the trust of wounded soldiers.

Gen. Richard Cody, the Army's vice chief of staff, announced that Brig. Gen. Michael Tucker will come to Washington as part of a leadership restructuring at Walter Reed that will include the creation of a new brigade focused on helping wounded outpatients navigate a treacherous bureaucracy.

1. I don't understand
wouldn't you put a medical man in charge? (Oh, wait, I would, Bush would not). Anyway, I wish him well and hope he succeeds.
