Neither has been officially sent to the Senate to prepare for confirmation hearings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fenton, a career Special Forces officer, took command of JSOC in July, after serving in the defense secretary\u2019s office as an adviser. Prior to that, he was the deputy commander of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Fenton would be the first Green Beret in nearly 20 years to lead SOCOM. The current head of the command, Gen. Richard Clarke, cut his teeth in the 75th Ranger Regiment, as did Gen. Tony Thomas before him.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/news\/your-military\/2022\/04\/05\/pentagons-top-general-suggests-more-permanent-basing-in-europe-but-with-rotational-manning\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/7077648.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Pentagon\u2019s top general suggests more permanent basing in Europe, but with rotational manning<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">The chairman of the Joint Chiefs suggested locally built bases in Eastern Europe, without permanently stationed U.S. troops.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cavoli has led U.S. Army Europe since 2018.

At the same time, there\u2019s ongoing discussion at the Pentagon and within NATO on what the U.S. force posture should look like on the continent going forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The heads of U.S. Army Europe and Africa Command and Joint Special Operations Command have been selected, the Wall Street Journal
