    Admiral Gary Roughead

    Yesterday, Northrop Grumman Corporation announced that former U.S. Navy Admiral Gary Roughead will be joining the company’s Board of Directors. Admiral Roughead previously served as the 29th Chief of Naval Operations for the U.S. Navy and retired last year. The election of Admiral Roughead brings Northrop Grumman’s board members to 13. 12 of the 13 members are non-employee directors.

    “Gary Roughead brings to our board a deep understanding of the global security challenges our nation and its allies are facing,” said Northrop Grumman Chairman, CEO and President, Wes Bush. “He possesses outstanding leadership experience and expertise, and is an excellent addition to our board as we continue to advance our performance for our shareholders, customers and employees.”

    Roughead served as the U. S. Navy’s Chief of Naval Operations from 2007 to 2011, ending his 38-year career in the U.S. Navy.
