Mark Milley. A report alleges that Milley promised to warn his Chinese counterpart ahead of time in case the Trump administration prepared a military strike against China.<\/p>\n<p>The Daily Caller first obtained the letter, which was spearheaded by Pennsylvania Rep. Scott Perry and signed by 26 other Republicans. In the letter, the lawmakers mention reporting from an upcoming book by Washington Post reporters Bob Woodward and Robert Costa, specifically <a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/09\/14\/mark-milley-warn-china-trump-phone-call-military-strike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">two secret phone calls<\/a> that allegedly took place Oct. 30, 2020, four days before the presidential election, and Jan. 8, two days after the Capitol riot. During the phone calls, Milley assured Gen. Li Zuocheng of the People\u2019s Liberation Army that the U.S. would not strike and he would warn the Chinese in case of an attack, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/politics\/2021\/09\/14\/peril-woodward-costa-trump-milley-china\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">excerpts<\/a> of the book \u201cPeril,\u201d reviewed by The Washington Post, allege.<\/p>\n<p>An AR-15-6 investigation is the Army\u2019s primary tool for gathering information in a variety of situations. A 15-6 investigation can be established to look into any situation a commander deems necessary and in the best interest of the military.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are gravely concerned with General (GEN) Mark Milley\u2019s ability to exercise his duties and responsibilities as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. In this recent case, our specific concerns involve reports from 14 September 2021, which indicate that GEN Milley blatantly disregarded the concept of civilian control of the military, and gave aid and comfort to America\u2019s principal adversary, the Chinese Communist Party,\u201d the lawmakers wrote in the letter. \u201cWe request a formal AR 15-6 Investigation commence immediately with regard to these allegations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ THE LETTER HERE:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"View (DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) -- EXCLUSIVE: House Republicans Demand Investigation Into Mark Milley on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/document\/525670066\/DAILY-CALLER-OBTAINED-EXCLUSIVE-House-Republicans-Demand-Investigation-Into-Mark-Milley#from_embed\">(DAILY CALLER OBTAINED) \u2014 \u2026<\/a> by <a title=\"View Henry Rodgers&#039;s profile on Scribd\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/user\/527927298\/Henry-Rodgers#from_embed\">Henry Rodgers<\/a><\/p>\n<p>After sending the letter, Perry, a retired brigadier general with more than 38 years of U.S. Army service, told the Daily Caller that the U.S. cannot survive treason from within. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dailycaller.com\/2021\/09\/14\/mark-milley-warn-china-trump-phone-call-military-strike\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">(RELATED: Gen.
