Brigadier General, (Ret, NYG);
Commander, Forward Operating Base Abu Ghraib, Iraq
Ken's latest assignments included postings as an instructor at the U.S. Army War College at Carlisle Barracks as well as four years with the Joint Chiefs of Staff. He was positioned for two years as Chief of Staff to the Army Asymmetric Warfare Office at the Pentagon, and served (by request) in Iraq as Commander of the Abu Ghraib Forward Operating Base and detention facility, specifically to remediate issues raised in the aftermath of the scandal.
His decorations include the Defense Superior Service Medal, Legion of Merit, Bronze Star Medal, Good Conduct Medal, and the Combat Action Badge.
He is an outspoken advocate of preparing America against the threat of an EMP attack or massive solar flare, and has been deeply involved with EMPAct America, a group I also have worked with. I am proud to have Ken’s endorsement and, if elected, look forward to working with him and EMPAct America to protect America from this devastating threat to our way of life.
