President Clinton has nominated Maj. Gen. Claudia J. Kennedy to be the Army's first female three-star general, the Pentagon announced Tuesday.
Kennedy, who has served as the Army's assistant deputy chief of staff for intelligence since July 1995, also is being nominated to serve as the deputy chief of staff for intelligence, the announcement said.
The appointment must be confirmed by the Senate, Pentagon spokesman Kenneth Bacon said.
The Navy and the Marine Corps ``already have three-star flag officers'' who are women, Bacon said.
