After Senator Tommy Tuberville lifted his hold on over 400 senior officer promotions, the U.S. military services are swiftly addressing the backlog of promotable leaders. The Army recently conducted a promotion ceremony for eight senior leaders, including new Maj. Gen. William Green, Jr., and others assuming key roles in logistics, communications, and command positions. Army Secretary Christine Wormuth emphasized the difficulties faced by these officers and their families during the hold, expressing hope that such delays won’t become a norm. The Air Force is also progressing through its list of promotable officers, including notable positions like the inspector general and the Pentagon’s press secretary. Meanwhile, the Marine Corps promoted Lt. Gen. James Adams, and Tuberville continues to hold back confirmations for 11 four-star nominees, citing the need for more thorough vetting.
