<<Bush Nominates Rumsfeld for Defense
The Associated Press

WASHINGTON –– President-elect Bush named Donald Rumsfeld to be his secretary of defense on Thursday, returning to the Pentagon a man who held the job at the end of the Vietnam War.

With that surprise announcement, a Rumsfeld reprise after 25 years, Bush filled a vacancy that had been the object of intense speculation since he was reported to be on the verge of choosing a former Indiana senator to take it.

Rumsfeld, 68, is a veteran of four Republican administrations, dating back to Richard Nixon's time. He served as secretary of defense under President Ford.

"He is going to be a great secretary of defense – again," Bush said.
