NATO designates Lt General Grynkewich as the new Supreme Commander Europe
Blast from Brussels: New SACEUR on the Block
Hey there, folks! Guess who's about to take the reins as the Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR)? None other than Lieutenant General Alexus G. Grynkewich, a seasoned career officer from the United States Air Force!
The news dropped on June 5, 2025 when the North Atlantic Council gave a thumbs-up to General Grynkewich's nomination, which had been put forward by U.S. President Donald Trump. Currently, he's serving as the Director of Operations for the U.S. Joint Staff.
So, what does this mean? Well, the man's gonna replace General Christopher G. Cavoli, who's been leading the charge to support Ukraine and beef up NATO's deterrent against Russia. The official change of command ceremony's scheduled to go down at the Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers Europe (SHAPE) in Mons, Belgium later in the summer of 2025, once the necessary U.S. national confirmation processes are completed.
Hold on, though. There's a little more to it than that. General Grynkewich's appointment marks a significant shift in NATO's command structure, bringing a fresh set of eyes and ideas to the table. But we'll keep you posted as we get more details on his plans and strategies.
