MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- The new secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs has wasted no time in firing the agency's no. 3 official.
Executive Assistant Mike Trepanier says he was fired by Ken Black on Tuesday minutes after the board named Black the new secretary.
Trepanier says he was handed a letter saying his termination was effective immediately. When he returned to his office, he says he was already locked out of his computer.
Trepanier was loyal to Secretary John Scocos, who was fired by the board Tuesday and replaced with Black.
Black says his focus is on working with the board and veterans groups to fix problems in the agency.
