The Secretary of Defense, Charles Hagel, recently resigned. Thoughts? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/the-secretary-of-defense-charles-hagel-recently-resigned-thoughts <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I've heard a bit about why he resigned, but basically it sounds like he was fired but allowed to leave under his own "wind." Does anyone in RP know anything more? Was it political or actually his failure to perform? Tue, 25 Nov 2014 20:53:41 -0500 The Secretary of Defense, Charles Hagel, recently resigned.

He just came across as a weak and mouse-like Yes-man. Apparently he and Obama had differences of opinion so maybe he had a little more spine that I imagined. I don't envy anyone having to take his place and work for a Cmdr-in-Chief so lacking in integrity. Capt Jeff S. Wed, 26 Nov 2014 01:57:05 -0500 2014-11-26T01:57:05-05:00 2014-11-25T20:53:41-05:00
