The Preventive Defense Project welcomed two new senior advisors in September- General (ret.) John P. Abizaid and General (ret.) James L. Jones.
General Abizaid retired from the U.S. Army in May after 34 years of active duty service. He served most recently as commander of U.S. Central Command, and previously as director of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
General Jones retired from the U.S. Marine Corps in December 2006 after 40 years of active duty service. He served as Commander of U.S. European Command and Supreme Allied Commander, Europe.
"Their insights from two long and successful careers will help the Project analyze problems across the full range of national security and foreign policy issues, and we greatly look forward to working with them and learning from their experiences," Carter and Perry wrote in announcing Abizaid and Jones as advisers.
