Wikipedia: Charles Timothy "Chuck" Hagel (born October 4, 1946) is an American politician and former United States Senator from Nebraska. A recipient of two Purple Hearts from his time as an infantry squad leader in the Vietnam War, Hagel returned home to start a career in politics and business, making millions as a co-founder of Vanguard Cellular. A member of the Republican Party, Hagel was first elected to the Senate in 1996. He was reelected in 2002 and then retired in 2008. Hagel is currently a professor at the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service at Georgetown University, the chairman of the Atlantic Council, and co-chairman of the President's Intelligence Advisory Board. In January 2013, major media outlets reported that Hagel would be nominated to serve as Secretary of Defense by President Barack Obama
