Admiral Lisa Franchetti has made history by becoming the first woman on the US Joint Chiefs of Staff and the first female "naval commander" despite opposition from some sailors.
From 2020 to 2022, Admiral Franchetti served as the director of strategy and plans for the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the United States. During this time, she participated in three war exercises involving Russia and commanded the AUG near Korea during the United States' efforts to deter Kim Jong-un.
In 2018, Admiral Franchetti commanded the first-ever Tomahawk strike from a Virginia-class nuclear submarine in European waters targeting Syria. The mission posed challenges as the targets were located near Russian forces and air defense systems, which the United States wanted to avoid damaging. Despite these difficulties, Admiral Franchetti fearlessly gave the command to fire a salvo, resulting in the successful destruction of the targets with minimal collateral damage. The Russians were not affected by the operation, as reported by Navy Times.
Admiral Franchetti supports the new Joint Chiefs of Staff, Charles "Ruthless" Brown Jr., in urging President Biden to prepare for potential conflicts with Russia or China.
