Trump's Army Secretary Pick Is a Former Cavalry Officer, Yale Classmate of JD Vance
 
Published December 04, 2024 at 2:25 pm

President-elect Donald Trump has named businessman and Iraq War veteran Dan Driscoll as his pick for Army secretary, signaling his goal of reshaping traditional leadership in the Pentagon.

"Dan brings a powerful combination of experiences to serve as a disruptor and change agent," Trump said in a statement Wednesday, highlighting Driscoll's unconventional background as an asset for the role.
 
Driscoll, a political adviser to and former university classmate of Vice President-elect JD Vance, has an eclectic background and atypical resume, serving just a brief time in the Army before leaving service for the Ivy League. He earned a law degree from Yale University before launching a career in investing, business consulting and political advising. He also made an unsuccessful run for Congress in 2020, finishing far behind in a crowded Republican primary field in North Carolina.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Mark Milley went to Yale too and I'm not sure the military will ever recover from the damage he did. **nononono*
