The Pentagon on Monday removed the portrait of Mark Milley, the retired Army general and former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, according to two Reuters witnesses, in a move that happened within two hours of President Donald Trump's inauguration.

Austin III hosts the unveiling of the portrait of former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, retired U.S. Army General Mark A. Milley, at the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, U.S. January 10, 2025.

A portrait of retired Gen. Mark Milley, a target of President Donald Trump's wrath, disappeared from a Pentagon hallway hours after the inauguration.

Mark Milley's portrait as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was taken down from the Pentagon hallway where all of the paintings of the previous chairmen are located.

Trump has often criticized his former top general, whose portrait was taken down at the Pentagon just after the new administration took office.
