Retired Marine Commandant's Legacy and Future Plans Revealed
Marine Commandant Gen. David Berger, who is set to retire on July 10, has no clear plan for his retirement and intends to take some time to think and read before deciding on his next steps. He has sought advice from retired peers who warned him about the busyness that comes with post-military life. Berger expressed an interest in teaching and coaching, but has not given much thought to writing a book. He plans to prioritize spending time with his family and has no intention of micromanaging his successor.
