The Senate last week confirmed the Air Force’s choice of Maj. Gen. Charles Green as its new Surgeon General, about a month after the White House submitted his nomination. Green, currently serving as deputy Surgeon General, will pin on three stars and replace Lt. Gen. James Roudebush, who has led the service’s medical corps since 2006 and plans to retire officially on Oct. 1.
President-elect Donald Trump has said he will nominate Pete Hegseth, a Fox News personality, as Secretary of Defense for Trump's second term. The choice rounds out most of the national security selections for the new administration.
