NEWPORT NEWS, Va. — Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Air Force Gen. CQ Brown, is Visiting Christopher Newport University to hold what’s being called a fireside chat at the university's Ferguson Center.

The walk through the center is somewhat familiar to him. He walked the halls as a student at what was then Homer L. Ferguson High School.

This is not the Chairman’s first visit to Hampton Roads in 2024, though. In February, he visited with sailors and toured ships at Naval Station Norfolk.
