Just him. Some people do get some reductions in rank, but not as the result of trials. Samuel Coaster, the commanding officer of the 23rd Infantry Division, received a reduction in rank from major general to brigadier general. He resigned his position as superintendent of West Point during the hearings. He was eventually cleared, but he kept that reduction in rank.

The thing he faced was that he and his assistant division commander, Brigadier General George Young had not followed regulations and reported the war crimes allegations. And so they faced reductions of rank and eventually soon retired from the service, even though they were cleared of things like having a cover-up.

This is supposed to happen.
