Pentagon Nominates Lt. Gen. Admiral to Command US Army Europe and Africa
If confirmed, Admiral would also lead NATO’s Allied Land Command and remain a three-star general despite the post’s previous four-star rank.
- On Thursday, the Pentagon announced President Donald Trump nominated Lt. Gen. Kevin Admiral to lead U.S. Army Europe and Africa, pending Senate confirmation to replace Gen. Christopher Donahue.
- Following the unexpected departure of Gen. Christopher Donahue, who relinquished command earlier this month after 18 months, the vacancy emerged amid broad senior leadership changes directed by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
- Admiral, currently commanding general of III Corps and Fort Hood, Texas, would remain a three-star officer in this role, despite the position previously being a four-star post.
- If confirmed, Admiral would also serve as commander of NATO's Allied Land Command, coordinating with 104 countries in the theater's area of responsibility.
- The command faces significant operational pressure, having recently suffered casualties during an Iranian attack in Jordan, as Admiral assumes leadership amid broader geopolitical tensions.
