[FoxNews] Air Force Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., is expected to be the next Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman following Gen. Mark Milley's departure.President Biden is expected to recommend Air Force Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., as the next chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff as Army Gen. Mark Milley's four-year term approaches its end. If nominated and confirmed by the Senate, Brown, who currently serves as the chief of staff of the Air Force, would become the second black man in the position. Army Gen. Colin Powell, who was appointed to the post by former President George H.W. Bush in 1989, was the first.

David Berger, the 38th Commandant of the Marine Corps, the Wall Street Journal reported. Posted by: Skidmark 2023-05-06 |
