Bush Names Secretaries of Navy and Air Force

President Bush announced that he had chosen an executive for a defense firm to be secretary of the Navy and a Pentagon weapons buyer to be secretary of the Air Force.

Michael W. Wynne, Bush's choice for Air Force secretary, has been the Defense Department's undersecretary for acquisition, technology and logistics since 2003. He replaces James G. Roche, who resigned in January.

Bush selected Donald C. Winter, president of Northrop Grumman Missile Systems in Los Angeles, to become the Navy's top civilian official.

The position has been open since May, when Bush placed Gordon R. England in the No. 2 Pentagon job of acting deputy secretary of Defense.
