Irving Peress July 31 1917 - November 13 2014 was a New York City dentist who became a primary target for investigation of alleged communist leanings during the 1954 Army-McCarthy hearings. In October 1953 Peress was promoted to Major even though his commanding officer had recommended that Peress be separated from the military because of suspicions stemming from his questionnaire answers.The Army later described it as a "readjustment in rank" made to comply with the Doctors' Draft Act a recent law. McCarthy wrote a letter to Secretary of the Army Robert T. Stevens calling for Peress to be court-martialed. He called for an investigation into the Army's handling of Peress' commissioning and promotion. Stevens believed that Peress' refusals to answer the Committee's questions did not provide grounds for court-martial and approved Peress' discharge on February 2. that required that the rank of military medical professionals reflect their level of experience.
