Vice Adm. Shoshana Chatfield who began her career as a helicopter pilot and was the first woman to be president of the Naval War College, had been serving as a senior official at NATO.

The Pentagon said Tuesday Navy Vice Admiral Shoshana Chatfield has been removed as the U.S. military representative to NATO "due to a loss in confidence in her ability to lead."

After Vice Adm. Shoshana Chatfield was ousted, a key House Democrat said, “Yet again, our country is less safe because of President Trump’s actions.”
