Four-star Marine Corps general and Texas A&M University graduate Gen. Eric Smith is up for a promotion in the near future, as the Biden White House moves to make him the branch’s highest-ranking officer.
Smith, who was nominated to serve as Marine Corps commandant early Wednesday, has filled the role of assistant commandant since late 2021. If confirmed, he would take over the top job from retiring commandant Gen. David H. Berger, overseeing a force of nearly 180,000 active duty Marines as well as more than 30,000 in reserve. He would also hold a seat on the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

I am giving a presentation to a Squadron of the Corps of Cadets next week. General Smith couldn't make it, and I was the second choice... LOL!
