On July 21, 2023, US President Biden picks _____ as first woman to lead USA Navy.

  • A. Samuel Paparo
  • B. Lisa Franchetti
  • C. Linda L. Fagan
  • D. None of these

Correct Answer: B. Lisa Franchetti

President Joe Biden nominated Admiral Lisa Franchetti on July 21, 2023, to lead the US Navy, a historic step that would break a gender barrier in the military by making her the first woman to command the service and to become a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The decision by Biden is a surprise. Pentagon officials had widely expected the nomination to go to Admiral Samuel Paparo, who leads the navy in the Pacific and who has experience grappling with the growing challenge from China.
