Jeh Johnson: John Kelly ‘Will Be Well Received by My Work Force When He Takes Over’

‘He’s a good man and I think he will be well received by my work force when he takes over’

EXCERPT:

JOHNSON: "John Kelly was the secretary of defense’s military aide when I was general counsel of the Department of Defense. First time I ever heard about John Kelly was when I was at Dover to greet his son’s casket coming back from Afghanistan and there were all of these marines there saying we are all here for General Kelly. And then, some months later, he showed up in the Pentagon, I got to know him well and I consider him a friend. He’s a good man and I think he'll be well received by my work force when he takes over."
