Paula Coughlin was not expelled from the military

The article states in the legacy section that she was expelled from the U.S military. However, according to Rosemarie Skaine's "Power and gender: issues in sexual dominance and harassment" She resigned from the military. This information can be corroborated from the Paula Coughlin article, so should that be changed on this page?
