Who is the Commandant of the Coast Guard?

The Commandant of the Coast Guard is currently Admiral Karl Schultz. The Commandant serves as the highest-ranking officer in the U.S. Coast Guard and is responsible for the strategic direction and control of the service. This position is critical as it oversees operations, administration, and personnel within the Coast Guard while also coordinating with other branches of the military and agencies for maritime safety and security.

The other options provided do not hold the position of Commandant. Admiral Kevin Lunday, General Aaron Redd, and General Richard G. Rumbaugh have their own ranks and responsibilities but are not the Commandant of the Coast Guard. Understanding the role of the Commandant and recognizing Admiral Schultz as the current officeholder is essential knowledge in the NJROTC curriculum.
