Top Marine commander hospitalized after suffering heart attack!
The U.S. Marine Corps’ highest ranking officer has been hospitalized after suffering a heart attack.
Commandant of the Marine Corps Gen. Eric M. Smith was hospitalized Sunday after suffering a “medical emergency,” according to a Marine Corps press release, with USNI reporting Monday that the top general suffered a heart attack.
Lt. Gen. Karsten Heckl, deputy commandant for combat development and integration and commanding general of the Marine Corps Combat Development Command, will serve as acting commandant while Smith is out, the Marines announced in the release.
Smith was last seen in public on Sunday afternoon at the finish line of the Marine Corps Marathon in Arlington, Virginia, where the top general greeted runners completing the event, according to USNI. Smith also talked to reporters Friday, noting that he was doing the job of both the commandant and assistant commandant while awaiting Senate confirmation of Lt. Gen. Christopher Mahoney to the Marine’s No. 2 officer role.
Lt. Gen. Karsten Heckl will serve as the interim commandant of the Marine Corps.
