Retired Lt. Gen. Gary Volesky was serving as HQE-SM, a highly qualified expert-senior mentor, when he was suspended by Lt. Gen. Theodore Martin, commanding general of the Combined Arms Center, according to a statement from an Army spokeswoman. Cynthia O. Smith. He did not give a reason for the suspension, which was pending the outcome of the investigation, and no other details were provided. USA Today reported that a Twitter account under Volesky’s name responded to a statement from the first lady following the Supreme Court’s action last month that overturned the Roe v. Wade abortion rights decision. “For nearly 50 years, women have had the right to make our own decisions about our bodies. Today, we were robbed of that right,” Biden said. The newspaper reported that the tweet under Volesky’s name read: “Glad to see you finally know what a woman is.” The tweet was later deleted.
