EDMONTON — The Department of National Defence says two senior leaders of a respected Armed Forces battalion have been removed pending an investigation.
It says Lt.-Col. Jason Hudson and Chief Warrant Officer Kim Doerr have been temporarily removed from their positions with 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry.
Hudson was the Edmonton-based unit’s commanding officer.
The Defence Department is sharing few details about the probe but says authority figures are expected to display good judgment and conduct.
