The U.S. Army removed a top general overseeing forces in Europe from command in recent days, close to two months before his time in the role is slated to end, two U.S. officials, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss internal personnel matters, told The Hill on Friday.
Lt. Gen. Charles Costanza was the commanding general of the Army’s V Corps, a forward-deployed corps headquartered at Fort Knox, Ky., and Camp Kościuszko, Poland.
When reached for comment, the Army confirmed to The Hill Costanza’s removal, adding the matter was “referred to the appropriate authority in accordance with Army regulations.”
