The White House has nominated Vice Adm. Lisa Franchetti to become the next vice chief of naval operations.
Franchetti’s nomination was sent to the Senate Monday.
If confirmed, she would become just the second woman to serve as VCNO, the second-highest ranking officer in the Navy. Now-retired Adm. Michelle Howard held the position from 2014 to 2017. The nomination includes a promotion for Franchetti to become a four-star admiral as well.
