Conway confirmed as new commandant

Times staff

The full Senate confirmed Lt. Gen. James Conway to be the 34th commandant of the Marine Corps last night. Conway, who will also receive a fourth star, will succeed Commandant Gen. Mike Hagee as early as this November, officials have said.

As the commander of I Marine Expeditionary Force in 2003, Conway oversaw troops during the invasion of Iraq and returned the following year to help execute the first battle of Fallujah that April.

Conway, 58, and a 36-year veteran of the Corps, is currently director of operations for the Joint Staff.

Any new CMC is certainly better than the one still in charge now, along with his no-ballz Sergeant Major! <br />

off the record
thank F'ing god..... hanging the Pendelton 8 and Cpl Belie (Hadji Girl) out to dry, just showed me our current CMC and SgtMgj decided Political Correctness should overrule being Always Faithful to our own... and these are just small minute problems which i believe hold more insite into their overall view of things

Heres to getting someone with the gall and audacity to do what is right and stand for his Marines
