Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. David Allvin on Monday announced his plans to retire this fall, just two years into his four-year term.
Allvin’s expected retirement comes after President Donald Trump ousted former Coast Guard commandant Adm. Linda Fagan, former Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. C.Q. Brown and removed former Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti.
The Air Force Chief of Staff did not give a reason for his early departure, but said he would remain in his post until a replacement is confirmed.
“I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve as the 23rd Air Force Chief of Staff and I’m thankful for … President Trump’s faith in me to lead our service,” Allvin said. “More than anything, I’m proud to have been part of the team of Airmen who live out our core values of integrity, service and excellence every day as we prepare to defend this great nation.”
