Fort McCoy’s commander has been relieved of her duties.

In a short statement, the Army posted, “Col. Sheyla Baez Ramirez has been suspended as Garrison Commander at Fort McCoy. This suspension is not related to any misconduct. We have no further details to provide at this time while this matter is under review.”

Ramirez assumed her duties as commander July 19, 2024.

While the Army didn’t give a reason for Ramirez’s dismissal, the Daily Beast reports that portraits of President Donald Trump, Vice-President J.D. Vance and Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth were flipped to face the wall instead of the hallway. The portraits were part of a grouping illustrating the post’s chain of command.

Prior to arriving at Fort McCoy, Ramirez served as chief Reserve Program, United States Army Intelligence and Security Command at Fort Belvoir, Virginia.

She became the first female to lead the post, located between Tomah and Sparta in Monroe County. In her first interview with the media, she described her appointment as “a great milestone.” She said it shows “we that we have diversity in every part of our society.”

Her military service dates back to 1999, when she earned her commission as a military intelligence officer through the Reserve Officer Training Corps. She is a native of Puerto Rico.

She succeeded Col. Stephen Messenger at Fort McCoy.

Nobody from Fort McCoy was available late Tuesday afternoon for immediate comment.
