Records show former Fort Carson commander made inappropriate comments, sexual innuendos
By Dave Philipps Updated: February 1, 2014 at 7:19 am
The former commander of Fort Carson's hospital, Col. John McGrath, was removed from command because he regularly made brusque, "cringe-inducing" comments to his subordinates, according to newly released Army documents.
A 400-page investigation of McGrath, obtained by The Gazette through the Freedom of Information Act, shows there were no overt accusations of sexual misconduct or illegal reprisal by the commander of Evans Army Hospital. Instead, the report reads a bit like an episode of "The Office," with the oblivious boss constantly making inappropriate comments.
Upon meeting an attractive nurse, McGrath allegedly said, "I see how you got your rank," according to the report.
He asked another employee if he met his wife at a strip club.
