Biden to nominate Air Force chief as top military officer.
TL;DR Summary
President Joe Biden is expected to nominate Gen. C.Q. Brown, the Air Force’s top officer and the first Black person to lead any branch of the military, to succeed Gen. Mark Milley as the next Joint Chiefs chair. If confirmed, Brown would become the second Black Joint Chiefs chair in the nation’s history. Brown’s reputation and command experience in both the Pacific and the Middle East made him the odds-on favorite to be Milley’s heir apparent dating back to the Trump administration.
