Jessica Quezada\/Marine Corps<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Walsh&#8217;s nomination to the top MCCDC post raises questions about the future of Lt. Gen. Kenneth Glueck, who currently holds the job. Glueck, an <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">Naval <\/span>aviator who received his first unit assignment in 1976, has served as a lieutenant general since 2011. His previous high-profile posts include commander of III Marine Expeditionary Force in Okinawa, Japan, and director of <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">O<\/span>operations and <span class=\"rte rte-comment\">L<\/span>logistics for U.S. Africa Command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Glueck could be well-placed to earn his fourth star and ascend to a key Marine Corps command post in light of the announcement and rumored upcoming leadership shifts in the Marine Corps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Defense Department sources say Commandant Gen. Joseph Dunford is a top contender for the position of chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, which will be vacant when the current chairman, Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, retires later this year. If Dunford is nominated for the job, the appointment of a new commandant could leave a number of posts in play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Officials with MCCDC did not immediately have information about Glueck&#8217;s future assignments<span class=\"rte rte-comment\"> plans<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apart from Dunford, there are now only two active Marine Corps four-star generals: Gen. John &#8220;Jay&#8221; Paxton, who has served as assistant commandant since December 2012, and Gen. John Kelly, who has been the commander of U.S. Southern Command since November 2012.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two high-profile Marine Corps generals were nominated for promotion and assignment to key command jobs, according to an announcement April 22 from the Defense Department.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":27520,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":69,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":[]},"categories":[12,69],"tags":[],"coauthors":[2551],"class_list":["post-11909","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-your-marine-corps"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"GFFKIZM23NHJVLI3KNJEAHVCIY","arc_canonical_url":"\/news\/your-marine-corps\/2015\/04\/22\/marine-generals-nominated-for-promotion-in-key-shift\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) -
