The spiraling scandal that took down David Petraeus has apparently ensnared another powerful general, as authorities announced
that Gen. John Allen is under investigation for allegedly sending inappropriate messages to Jill Kelley, a woman who has been linked
to the Petraeus scandal.
Allen, who is the commander of NATO's International Security Assistance Force in Afghanistan, has denied any wrongdoing.
But Panetta asked that Allen's nomination to become NATO's supreme allied commander be put on hold, the statement said.
The confirmation hearing to see if Allen would get that lofty military post was scheduled for Thursday.
