Phelan, who told NBC News he was "greatly honored," would be the first person in 15 years to lead the Navy without having served in the military.
President-elect Donald Trump has chosen John Phelan, a businessman and investor with no military experience, to become the next secretary of the Navy.
Phelan, if confirmed, would be the first person in 15 years to lead the Navy without having served in any branch of the armed forces.
He told NBC News on Wednesday that he was “greatly honored” to be selected by Trump, and confirmed he has not served, but declined to comment further.
In a statement Tuesday night, Trump touted Phelan’s “record of success” and said Phelan has “excelled in every endeavor,” including founding and leading Rugger Management LLC, a private investment firm based in Palm Beach, Florida.
He also said the Harvard Business School graduate’s “intelligence and leadership are unmatched.”
“John will be a tremendous force for our Naval Servicemembers, and a steadfast leader in advancing my America First vision,” Trump said. “He will put the business of the U.S. Navy above all else.”
