Former Trump Chief of Staff Reince Priebus Joins Navy

According to The Daily Caller:

Former White House chief of staff Reince Priebus is officially in the U.S. Navy.

He was commissioned as an ensign, or entry-level officer, in a Monday ceremony officiated by Vice President Mike Pence. Since Priebus is a Wisconsin native, Republicans Sen. Ron Johnson and Rep. Bryan Steil attended. Sean Spicer, a Navy reserve officer who overlapped with Priebus in the White House while serving as press secretary, was also in attendance.

Priebus, 47, is expected to serve as a human resources officer, reported The Hill.

Priebus applied to join the Navy as a reserve officer months ago, The Washington Postreported in December 2018. The former Republican National Committee chair was motivated to join up after an Oval Office meeting with President Donald Trump and the family of a slain Navy SEAL William Owens.

Priebus was recommended by then-Secretary of Defense James Mattis for his application to join the Navy.

It looks like it worked.
