Thornberry on General Dunford
Nomination for Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff
Today, Mac Thornberry (R-TX), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, made the following statement on the nomination of General Dunford to be the next Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff:
"General Dunford is a good choice to be Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The range and severity of threats America faces today is unprecedented. I am encouraged that the President has chosen as his top military officer a General who has stared down many of those threats personally. General Dunford has always been candid in giving his best military advice to this committee, if he is confirmed, I look forward to that relationship continuing."
