It turns out that Panetta honored Lucy Haessler, a founder of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF).
The WILPF homepage is here. WILPF is a longtime communist front group, with ties to various terror-financing operations: "Not In Our Name and the World Wide Terrorism Web." It's also an anti-Semitic organization: "WILPF Supports Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions for Israel." And "Blood Libel: NIF-Linked Group Blames Israel for Leukemia in Gaza."

Has any specific reason been given for why they are switching him to the Defense position?
Yes, Robert Gates is retiring, which opened up Defense. Obama can shift Panetta to DOD and then appoint Gen. David Petraeus to CIA, since he wants Petraeus out of military command.
