The Body Count -- Eric Chewning, Chief of Staff to SecDef


A Reoccurring Feature on Who's Jumping Off Luxury Liner Trump

Eric Chewning, chief of staff to Defense Secretary Mark Esper, will step down at the end of this month, his exit apparently accelerated by Trump's latest wild swings against Iran. 

Chewning, a former Army intelligence officer and combat veteran, joined the Pentagon in 2017 and was later promoted to chief of staff by then-Defense Secretary Pat Shanahan.

Chewning will return to the private sector where rational decision-making is still practiced.
