  Dempsey, then the commander of the Army's Training and Doctrine Command, eliminated the portion of a substantiated inspector general's report of adultery by Maj. Gen. John Custer, who was allowed to retire at his rank with no reduction in his pension benefits.

The inspector general's report was uncovered by USA TODAY through the Freedom of Information Act.
