Army Suspends Commander After Chain-of-Command Photos of Trump, Vance & Hegseth Mysteriously Vanish—Pentagon Probe Launched
In a stunning move that has sent shockwaves through the Pentagon, the U.S. Army has suspended the commander of Fort McCoy after the Wisconsin base failed to display photos of President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on its official chain-of-command wall—a glaring omission that has sparked a full-scale military investigation.
Col. Sheyla Baez Ramirez, garrison commander of Fort McCoy, was relieved of duty following the discovery that the base’s leadership display featured empty frames where the images of the nation’s top leaders should have been.
While the Army Reserve Command insists the suspension is “not related to any misconduct,” sources tell us the incident has raised serious questions about whether this was deliberate sabotage—or yet another example of anti-Trump resistance festering within the ranks.
“WE FIXED IT!” – Pentagon Scrambles to Correct “Disrespectful” Omission
The controversy erupted after an alert service member noticed the missing photos and reported the issue up the chain. The Defense Department quickly launched a probe, and within hours, the frames were filled—but not before Defense Secretary Hegseth blasted the oversight on social media, reposting an X message declaring:
“Commander of Fort McCoy, whose base chain-of-command board was missing photos of Trump, Vance and Hegseth, has been SUSPENDED.”
The Pentagon’s rapid response team later posted:
“Regarding the Ft. McCoy Chain of Command wall controversy…. WE FIXED IT! Also, an investigation has begun to figure out exactly what happened.”
A Pattern of Anti-Trump Resistance in the Military?
This incident comes amid a broader purge of military leaders accused of undermining the Trump administration. Just weeks ago, Col. Susannah Meyers was fired as commander of Pituffik Space Force Base in Greenland after she publicly contradicted Vice President Vance following his visit, emailing her troops that his remarks were “not reflective” of the base’s values.
The Space Force declared Meyers was ousted due to “loss of confidence in her ability to lead,” emphasizing that commanders must “remain nonpartisan.”
Meanwhile, Hegseth has been cleaning house at the Pentagon, recently axing four former aides amid leaks and infighting. Sources say the secretary is “tired of disloyalty” and has zero tolerance for “Deep State holdovers” resisting the administration’s agenda.
Who Is Col. Sheyla Baez Ramirez?
Ramirez, who took command at Fort McCoy in July 2023, is a seasoned Army Reserve officer with a background in intelligence and security. But her sudden suspension—over what some are calling a “deliberate snub”—has raised eyebrows.
Was this an innocent oversight? Or is there a deeper, more troubling explanation?
One thing is clear: The Trump administration is done playing games with military leaders who refuse to honor the chain of command.
