The next VA secretary should be a senior enlisted person. The current and former e-10s have all proven themselves to be excellent leaders. The job of an e-10 is to look out for the soldiers, sailors, marines, coast guardsmen and airmen of their service. This is an excellent resume to serve our veterans.
Please nominate a current or former Sergeant Major of the Army, Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy, Sergeant Major of the Marine Corp, Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard or Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force to be the new Secretary of Veteran Affairs.
