Mr. Newbold is transitioning from his present assignment to continue his selfless service with the U.S. Corps of Engineers. A native of Florida, Mr. Newbold joined the Department of Army in 2004 as an Army Materiel Command Fellow upon graduation from Bethune- Cookman University with a bachelor's degree in computer information systems. He also holds a masters of business administration from Texas A&M-Texarkana and a master's of professional studies in legislative affairs from the George Washington University. Mr. Newbold has served in a broad range of assignments during his 15- year Army career. His assignments took him to the most strategic locations responsible for modernizing, equipping, and empowering our Army soldiers to fight and win wars; Red River Army Depot, Texarkana, TX; Redstone Arsenal, AL; the Pentagon; and the headquarters of the United States Corps of Engineers, Washington, DC. He has held many positions, thriving in supervisory positions hallmarked by his servant leadership. In 2018, I had the privilege of working with Mr. Newbold in my capacity as the chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee Subcommittee on Military Construction, Veterans Affairs, and Related Agencies.
