On February 3, Reston, VA-based General Dynamics announced that its board of directors has elected Richard Clarke to be a director of the corporation.
Clarke is a retired U.S. Army general who served nearly four decades leading Infantry, Ranger, and Special Operations Forces at all levels in the U.S., Europe, Iraq and Afghanistan. He retired from the military in August 2022 after serving as the commander of the United States Special Operations Command, where he led a joint force of over 75,000 military members consisting of Army Rangers, Special Forces, Navy SEALs, Air Force Commandos and Marine Raiders, with an annual operating budget over $25 billion.
“Rich’s breadth of experience leading military forces across multiple theaters of operation will help General Dynamics continue to deliver the products and services our nation needs to deter and defeat future threats,” said Phebe Novakovic, chairman and chief executive officer. “He is a hands-on tactician and visionary strategist who will be a valuable addition to our board of directors.”
Clarke is a graduate of the United States Military Academy at West Point and earned an MBA from Benedictine College. He is a distinguished graduate of the National War College.
