Stan Arthur
Arthur was born in Jackson, Ohio, and was commissioned in United States Navy through the Naval Reserve Officer Training Corps Program in June 1957.[4] Arthur was nominated by President Bill Clinton to head U.S. military forces in the Pacific as the prospective Commander of United States Pacific Command, but the nomination was withdrawn after Senator Dave Durenberger (R-Minnesota), questioned Arthur's handling of sexual harassment allegations brought by one of the Senator's constituents, a female navy student helicopter pilot, Ensign Rebecca Hansen, who was attrited from flight training for substandard flight performance.Rather than let the Pacific Fleet job go unfilled during what might have been protracted congressional hearings, Arthur elected to retire from the Navy on February 1, 1995, as a four-star admiral.Critics charged that the Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Mike Boorda, a non-aviator, had professionally sacrificed Arthur to improve the navy's image on sexual harassment following the Tailhook Incident.[6]Arthur joined Lockheed Martin in 1996 and was appointed President, Missiles and Fire Control – Orlando, Florida, in July 1999.
