WILLIAM CROWE SELECTED AS ENVOY TO BRITAIN
President Clinton has announced his intention to nominate retired Admiral
William Crowe to be ambassador to Britain. Crowe, an early supporter of
Clinton's presidential aspirations, served as chairman of the Joint Chiefs
of Staff from 1985 to 1989. He is chairman of the President's Foreign
Intelligence Advisory Board, counselor at the Center for Strategic and
International Studies in Washington and professor of geopolitics at the
University of Oklahoma.
"Admiral Crowe," Clinton said in a written statement, "has distinguished
himself in four decades of dedicated public service. I am very pleased
that he will continue his service to this nation and that I will be able to
rely on his wise counsel in this very important position" at the U.S.
Embassy in London.
Crowe earned master's and doctoral degrees at Princeton University. He
served as commander of Allied Forces in Southern Europe, U.S. Naval Forces
in Europe, the Pacific Fleet, and the Middle East Force based in Bahrain.
