A diversity officer in a branch of the U.S. military has been reinstated after an investigation into his social media posts, which included one missive comparing then-President Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler, uncovered no violations of Department of Defense policies.
In March, the U.S. Special Operations Command announced the hiring of Richard Torres-Estrada as its chief of diversity and inclusion. Shortly afterward, he was reassigned as officials investigated posts he'd made during the Trump administration, including one in which he made a comparison of Trump to Hitler.
