TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Ron DeSantis on Wednesday named a new leader of the Florida State Guard and urged all interested Floridians to apply, including unvaccinated service members facing discharge under the Department of Defense's COVID-19 vaccine mandate.

Retired Marine Corps Lt. Col. Chris Graham will serve as director of the soon-to-come Florida State Guard, DeSantis announced at a press conference in Madeira Beach.

A native Floridian and former helicopter pilot, Graham boasts an extensive military background, including three deployments to Iraq and time served in the Defense Intelligence Agency. He also earned a Purple Heart and led an anti-terrorism battalion.
