PITTSBURGH — Western Pennsylvania native Sean Parnell said he is humbled and honored to once again serve his country, this time not on the battlefield, but as the chief Pentagon spokesman for the Trump administration.
Parnell told the Washington Examiner the call to duty feels amazing.
“I accept the position with great humility. One of the things I wish I understood when I joined the military at the age of 23 was that we were standing on the shoulders of giants. That we had inherited an extraordinary legacy of everyone who came before us,” he said.
President Donald Trump wrote Monday on Truth Social that he was pleased to announce Parnell’s new roles as chief Pentagon spokesman and assistant to the secretary of defense for public affairs.
